Sandown, and an old fashioned feel to the blog today!

Sandown 2:40

Andreas 4/1

Monets Garden 5/1

Howle Hill 11/2

Fiepes Shuffle 11/1

Pablo Du Charmil 20/1

This looks a right old tear up and most of these have reasons to avoid. Including Howle Hill who can jump stickily, plus King is 0-21 with chasers here. I still think he's a good price though based on very solid form earlier in a light season. Monet's Garden over shorter down south is opposable, and Andreas just doesn't win very often. Fiepes Shuffle and Pablo will have to cope with there being so many front runners but do have chances at bigger prices.

Royal County Star 11/2

Iris De Balme 11/2

My Immortal 9/1

Lothian Falcon 9/1

Bewleys Berry 10/1

Ungaro 14/1

Knowhere 20/1

Hoo La Baloo 20/1

RCS is weak this morning, as the money comes for Iris. On my prices My Immortal looks the one – though this is based on his run over the course, since when he has disappointed. Lothian Falcon is another to consider at the prices and Knowhere would be my pick of the topweights.

Sandown 3:55

Medicine Path 5/4

Major Cadeaux 4/1

Rob Roy 4/1

I missed the silly prices on Medicine Path, but 7/4 is perfectly fine in a race where all the rest have clear doubts.
