Daily Dogs – Sunday, January 1st

Sandown: Race 3 (2:55pm)
No. 1 Nelvin Bale

Nelvin Bale has been impressive in four starts, winning twice before a complete forgive run here over further last week.

He continues to improve with racing and should appreciate drawing the inside box for the first time in his career.

Sandown: Race 5 (3:35pm)
No. 4 Quill Bale

Quill Bale has found the money in both starts over this track and distance, which includes a slick 29.87 win back in October.

He was well-beaten at The Meadows last week but should appreciate some extra running room this time away from the paint.

Sandown: Race 7 (4:15pm)
No. 3 Savannah Riot

Savannah Riot won well at Geelong two runs back and was only gunned down late after leading for most of the way at The Meadows last week.

From Box 3, she’ll likely get an easy cart to the front and take running down. The slight step back in trip should also help her chances.

Sandown: Race 8 (4:35pm)
Same Race Multi

Lucky Molly got up narrowly to win at The Meadows last week over a similar distance and has done some of her best racing here at Sandown in the past. No reason she can’t go on with it.

Zipping Aura doesn’t win out of turn but looks set to peak now coming off a last-start third at Warragul last week.

Mepunga Raider tends to give an honest effort and is normally in the money at this venue. He’s finally drawn an ideal box and should be in this for a long way.

Our Same Race Multi selections are:

No. 8 Lucky Molly (Win)

No. 2 Mepunga Raider (Top 3)

No. 1 Zipping Aura (Top 4)
