News Corp form analyst Brad Waters looks at Wednesday’s Sandown Lakeside meeting.

BEST BET

Race 3 No.1 GALLANT PRINCE ($4.20)

Clayton Douglas-trained colt led and kept rolling to score at Pakenham first-up. He’ll be fitter and has the perfect racing style for the Sandown Lakeside course.

NEXT BEST

Race 6 No.5 NIANCE ($3.50)

The former Kiwi was a strong winner at her local debut for the Grahame Begg stable. She’ll be better for it and should be hard to hold out again.

Race 7 No.4 THALER ($8.50)

Thaler travelled well before scoring easily at The Valley second-up. He’ll be fitter for that and there’s no reason the gelding won’t go well at Sandown.

VALUE BET

Race 5 No.13 VIVIDNESS ($12)

The Godolphin filly jumped out well before a steady effort in an on-pacers’ race at The Valley. She’ll be better for it and that step to 1400m suits.

THE JOCKEY – CRAIG WILLIAMS

With five strong rides, Craig Williams has an excellent chance to take riding honours at Sandown on Wednesday. BRANDNU DEAL (Race 2 No. 3 – $5), BIDEN TIME (Race 3 No. 4 – $6), INDIAN JEWEL (Race 5 No. 8 – $12), FRENCH FLIRT (Race 6 No. 6 – $41), THALER (Race 7 No. 4 – $8.50).
