Race Tip
SANDPAPER (1) was returning from a break last time out and proved too classy, scoring by half a length over 6f at Wyong. Will be better for that latest run and happy to have him on top. HEADLEY GRANGE (3) finished second when resuming two runs back at this track then progressed nicely last time out to score by 0.6 lengths over 6½f at Wyong. Adam Hyeronimus scored on him last time and retains the mount. Looks well placed so expect another big run. MATTER OF HONOUR (10) performed above expectations last time over 7f at Randwick Kensington, getting the prize by 1.2 lengths. Among the main hopes. INVADER ZIM (6) has been about the mark of late. Last time out was 2.75 lengths from the winner in fifth over 6½f at Wyong. Takes on a tougher assignment but is not to be discounted.
