TAB fixed odds: $1.35 Place
Form https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666540550/race/8
The Watchdog says : GLADKI (1) has turned in some smart performances of late and should be able to hit the scoreboard from the favourable draw today. GEL BLASTER (8) is a near faultless beginner, and he should find this easier than his most recent racing.
Multi price: $1.75
$4 Win – TASTE THE GOLD
Healesville Race 9 Box 8 350m 1:18pm
TAB fixed odds: $2.60 Win
Form https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666540550/race/9
The Watchdog says : TASTE THE GOLD (8) has been ultra-impressive in his brief career to date and from the good draw, he should get every chance to balance up and assume control after around 50m or so. With the ability to go sub 19.20sec, they will have a hard time reeling him in.

Must Watch Race
Grade 5 Heat
Sandown Park Race 8
595m 4:22pm
The Watchdog says : If ZAC’S ENTITY (8) can do everything right, he should be winning with ease. OSPREY ROSE (7) is expected to lead, and she can hold on for the quinella spot.
‘Must Watch Race’ Preview :
It’s only a Grade 5 heat, but we get to see one of the code’s most gifted chasers in ZAC’S ENTITY (8) make his return to the track. He can be a little hard to follow and he can make mistakes, but there is no doubting that he has generational talent and if everything goes to plan today, the track record could be in trouble. The draw normally wouldn’t be ideal on a bend start; however, OSPREY ROSE (7) has brilliant early speed, and she should give him a nice cart into the first bend, and it should be a procession from there on.
