Our Sandown Hillside Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting
Chequerboard (Sandown Hillside Race 5 No. 1)
Good return at Bendigo when finishing third behind Hindaam and Anitra. Then began awkwardly last start when finishing midfield in the Listed Twilight Glow Stakes. Comes along way back in grade here and with a cleaner jump Mathew Cartwright can control this from the front.

Each Way
Clap (Sandown Hillside Race 2 No. 1):
The Robert Hickmott trained galloper was heavily backed on debut. He traveled into the race strongly before losing the compass a little around the home turn. Once he balanced up in the home running he lengthened very nicely. The step up in trip to the 1300m will suit and he looks over the odds at $17.

Best Lay
Tycoon Bella (Sandown Hillside Race 4 No. 5):
The resuming Tycoon Bella showed good talent early in her career but has struggled in more recent times, missing the top 3 at her last 4 starts. Furthermore there are a few things working against her here. 1000m is short of her best distance and Michael Walker has a wide barrier to negate. She has had two recent Cranbourne jump outs, they were just fair. This is a strong benchmark 64 and we are happy to oppose her at the current odds given these queries.
