The Lee Freedman trained STORM ALERT although winless in seven starts this spring is bursting to win a race and this is her chance. Outstanding effort at her last start in the Matriarch, handles any track type, has a nice draw and looks well placed on the limit. The G1 Oaks placegetter is WA bred by Metal Storm. Metal Storm could have a big day today with a number of runners at Ascot including AVENIDA MADERO, COVERTLY, METALDALE and MY LEO.

SHOW BARRY the main danger also looks ideally placed today. Also handles all track conditions and since progressing to middle distance has gone extremely well. Likes the track and has the services of top heavyweight jock Mark Flaherty. Drawn the fence so should get a soft run for most of the journey.

The John Hawke’s trained BREAK THE VAULT does look promising. Looked a bit unlucky on Cup day where he finished 2nd to the in form Zipping. He didn't appear to have a lot of luck getting a clear run in the sprint home. Looks the type who needs plenty of galloping room so Sandown should suit today. The extra distance of today’s race should also be right up his alley.

WILD CLASSIC a winner this track doesn’t win many but has a solid place strike rate. Prefers the sting out of the ground but ok good. None fitter and his last start effort at WFA was by far his best for a long time. Could add a bit of value to your novelties.
