Sandown - Saturday 13th June

We are on the cusp of Royal Ascot but there is a decent card at Sandown today as always and I'll be there looking to get some cash in the bank ready for Berkshire.

Law Court 11/4, 2pts win

The progressive son of Blue Point built on his seasonal debut at Newbury to run out a ready winner at this track last month. The extra furlong will hold no fears and his relentless galloping style suits the course. I expect him to go close here and continue his climb up the handicap.

Military Code 11/4, 2pts win

Charlie Appleby hasn't had a great month so far but he has a stranglehold on this race. Words Of Truth brings in decent form and is the highest rated runner but has the penalty to shoulder and a wide draw so preference is for stablemate Military Code. Already a runner up at Listed level over course and distance last year the son of Wootton Bassett finished his season by running a cracker at York in August. His fitness must be taken on trust but he's drawn well in stall 4 and the conditions of the day should suit him best.

Raammee 3/1, 2pts win

Roger Varian's stable couldn't be in better form and it could get better here as his unexposed 3 year old Raamee goes in search of a first win as a 3 year old. Impressive last year, he was backed on seasonal debut over this track last month but faded in the last furlong or so. It was a good run considering he was free and the hood goes on today. He's drawn well today and should come on for that run and get his season under way here.
