A terrific battle between dual G3 winner Barooga Smoke plus Group finalists Paddy Wants Pats and Hebridean Black highlights Sandown Park tonight.
G1 Adelaide Cup champion Do It faces G3 Provincial Plate finalist Paua Of Oscar and G2 Bendigo Cup runner-up Lots Of Chatter.
Kenny The Brute – second in the G1 Bold Trease final – and Mepunga Warrior – second in the G1 Hume Cup final – should stage a great duel also.

The Watchdog says : He has turned in some handy performances of late and he will be strong in the run home. There is a fair bit of pace in this event, so he should get a nice run through at the bend and he can pick off a few stragglers in the closing stages.

The Watchdog says : BOSTON GARDEN (1) continues to elevate his game and with an even getaway, he should be able to hold the lead through the bend and he will be carving out time. ALL INN DUNGEE (4) is armed with a big finish and with a clear passage early, he can run home into the top three.

The Watchdog says : She was brilliant when placed here last Friday night and she should have enough pace to cross at the bend. ARIZONA EYES (2) is a powerful type, however ‘Tysnlee’ should be able to head to the back with a nice break and she is hard to get past when in the clear over this journey.
$2 Win – HEBRIDEAN BLACK

Sandown Park Race 4
Box 2 515m 8:07pm
TAB fixed odds: $4.20 Win
The Watchdog says : Cracking line-up but HEBRIDEAN BLACK (2) has a ridiculous motor, and he will be suited by the smaller line-up. If he can step evenly, he should be able to push through at the bend and they will face a tough task reeling him in.
‘Must Watch Race’ Preview :
Only a field of five but it’s a cracking event. BAROOGA SMOKE (8) will have to do it the hard way from the wide draw, but he was enormous when reeling in Group 1 Adelaide Cup winner DO IT here last Friday night. PADDY WANTS PATS (1) continues to impress and he is drawn to be prominent throughout. HEBRIDEAN BLACK (2) is the most intriguing runner. He is one of the most gifted chasers in work and will appreciate the smaller line-up. With a clean getaway, he can take over as they head into the first bend, and they will have trouble reeling him in.

The Watchdog says : Hasn’t had a lot of luck since returning to Victoria, however we all know how talented he is when at his best. KENNY THE BRUTE (5) and MEPUNGA WARRIOR (6) are both high class stayers and will prove hard to beat, however our selection should get a nice sit early, and he could run over the top late and he represents value at that price.
