Sandown’s Hillside track is set to host a competitive eight-race card on Wednesday. The track has come up as a Soft 6 after some rainy days in Melbourne, while the rail will come out 12m for the entire circuit. The Sandown races on July 3 will commence at 12:25pm AEST.

Best Bet at Sandown: Nusumi

Despite getting rolled by Furlanetto at the Sandown Lakeside 1600m on June 5, Nusumi looks poised to turn the tables on her key rival. The filly was forced to go around the field when they last clashed, while Furlanetto made her way through the pack to get up by a half-length. Nusumi will be out the back of the field once again, but at peak fitness, and with a similar turn of foot, she looks the goods over 1600m.

Best Bet

Race 4 – #7 Nusumi (4)

3yo Filly | T: David Bourne | J: Ethan Brown (59kg)

Next Best at Sandown: Greyt Mumma

The Anthony & Sam Freedman-trained Greyt Mumma has two wins and a third to her name from four fresh runs and already boasts a win at the Sandown Hillside 1000m. She gets the gun draw in barrier two under apprentice hoop Jaylah Kennedy, whose claim gets the Capitalist mare in with just 56.5kg on her back. Greyt Mumma will be stalking what shapes to be a chaotic speed, and with even luck in the home straight, she should be too good for these.

Best Value at Sandown: Awapuni Princess

Awapuni Princess was a smart second at the Sandown Hillside 1300m on June 19, finishing 1.3 lengths off the smart Rhapsody Chic while putting the same margin on the third-placed horse. She has three wins and six minor placings from 14 starts on rain-affected ground, suggesting she has everything her favour in this BM74. With Jaylah Kennedy on board claiming 3kg, she gets in with just 55kg on her back and can run a big race at a nice price with horse betting sites.
