Saturday night’s G1 Topgun winner Aston Rupee is the headline act in tonight’s $25,000 winner-take-all G3 Shootout at Sandown Park.
However, The Watchdog believes dual G1 champion Tiggerlong Tonk – runner-up in the Topgun – can win consecutive Shootouts.
The unbeaten Wow She’s Fast, Aston Fastnet, Koblenz and Fernando Bluey feature in the final round of Melbourne Cup preludes, while G1 Topgun Stayers winner Gypsy Wyong is also in action this evening.

THE WATCHDOG’S $10 INVESTMENT

$4 Win – WEBLEC RAIDER
Sandown Park Race 1 Box 1 515m 7:00pm
TAB fixed odds: $3.10 Win
Form https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666539174/race/1
The Watchdog says : WOW SHE’S FAST (8) is likely to be wide the journey and with AUSSIE SECRET (2) expected to burn early and move wide through the bend, WEBLEC RAIDER (1) should get a nice run through, and he can head to the back in the top two. His win at The Meadows two runs back was super and a similar performance tonight can see him get the cash.

The Watchdog says : ORSON MICK (1) is racing with confidence, and he is drawn to be in the mix for most of the journey, so he should be able to hit the scoreboard. ASTON PROFIT (4) is a near faultless beginner, and she should turn for home with a nice break. The last 50m is a slight concern but she should have enough in the tank to finish in the top three. MERRY LASS (4) is airborne at present, and she is armed with terrific early speed, so with FUSION SPY (3) expected to give her a path across to the rail, she should get every chance to figure in the finish.

$1 Win – TIGGERLONG TONK
Sandown Park Race 4
Box 7 515m 8:07pm
Must Watch Race
Group 3 Shootout
TAB fixed odds: $4.80 Win
The Watchdog says : If ASTON RUPEE (3) times the start, he wins comfortably. If he hesitates at box rise, TIGGERLONG TONK (7) can assume control and that might be enough.
‘Must Watch Race’ Preview :
ASTON RUPEE (3) silenced his critics when capturing the Group 1 Topgun last Saturday night and if he does everything right at box rise, he wins again tonight. Last year’s Group 3 Shootout winner TIGGERLONG TONK (7) just continues to deliver, and he looks the likely leader. If the inside division bunch up, he may be off and gone down the back and that could be the difference. Group 1 winner LAKEVIEW WALTER (1) and McCOOLY’S LAD (5) are both genuine stars, but they are going to need a lot of things to go their way for them to score.
