4.05pm Sandown Tips & Betting Preview 27/04/2018

A competitive handicap here, Haddaf had some useful two-year-old form to his name last season, including a close third to the high-class Havana Grey over this course and distance in May. He was gelded over the winter and that looked to have made a significant impact when winning on his return to action at Southwell last month. He is coming up against a very well treated rival here though in DIAMOND DOUGAL who bolted up at Bath last week and a six-pound penalty still leaves him three pounds well in here. Franny Norton is now aboard and he is taken the continue Mick Channon’s excellent run of form.
