Sandown racing tips

—

Race 1. (12:25) Sportsbet Jockey Watch Plate (1400m)

#1 - Ad Vitam @ $2.80

BET NOW

Ad Vitam had a lot of betting support on debut when running second, and he’s good enough to bounce back and go one better.

The three-year-old son of Proisir didn’t fully enjoy the heavy conditions at Sale, so running at Sandown should be right up his alley.

Take the $2.80 odds before more money comes for him.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 2. (13:00) Tobin Brothers Celebrating Lives Handicap (1300m)

#1 - Lope de Lardo @ $4.20

BET NOW

Looking for back-to-back wins is Lope de Lardo, who was too good for them at Geelong last time out.

The two-year-old son of Belardo showed a good turn-of-foot to finish over the top of them, and it’s good to see Craig Williams sticking with him.

Getting $4.20 for a race winner is too good to pass up.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (13:35) Green Tick Handicap (1000m)

#5 - Regal Secret @ $6.00

BET NOW

Regal Secret is a good each-way bet after finishing second at Pakenham last time out, and she’s close to another win.

The three-year-old daughter of Nicconi owns two wins and three placings from 10 starts overall, so she’s never too far away from the prize.

She’s an excellent value bet at the current odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (14:10) MRC Membership Feel the Thrill Handicap (1000m)

#9 - Martial Music @ $6.00

BET NOW

Martial Music hasn’t been at his best recently, but he loves running over this distance with four wins from 10 starts.

The five-year-old son of Your Song ran second at his only start at Sandown, and any moisture in the surface won’t worry him.

We’re happy with the $4.60 odds available for a nice type.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 5. (14:45) Race Replays Hanidcap (1400m)

#8 - Ten Deep @ $3.20

BET NOW

Ten Deep was a touch unlucky not to win fresh up when second at Sandown, but she should be better with that run under her belt.

The four-year-old mare by Ten Sovereigns is bred to be better than average, and she owns two wins and four placings from eight starts.

It’s another good ride for Williams, who could have a big day.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 6. (15:20) Stow Storage Solutions Handicap (1300m)

#16 - Vienna Vixen @ $7.00

BET NOW

Punters get value odds for Vienna Vixen, who won well fresh up at Sale before running solid races at Flemington and Sandown.

The five-year-old mare by Foxwedge is a four-time winner overall, and she only needs a touch of luck from the wide draw to go close.

Given the odds, she can’t be left out of picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (15:55) Thoroughbred Club of Australia Handicap (2400m)

#10 - St Vincents Garden @ $7.00

BET NOW

St Vincents Garden won his first start for a new ownership group in Te Akau, and he could keep winning on Wednesday.

The five-year-old son of Camelot is bred to stay, and his win over 2418m at Geelong last start was a tough effort.

Willams rides, and we expected bookmakers to have him at shorter odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (16:30) More Places Handicap (1800m)

#8 - Makdane @ $3.20

BET NOW

Gunning for three consecutive wins is Makdane, who won at Geelong before winning at Sale last time out.

The four-year-old son of Impending has been out of the money only three times from 13 starts, so he’s a consistent type.

He has time to find cover from out wide, so he should be tough to beat.

Stake: 2 Units
