Back improving Willy to conquer all from excellent draw at Sandown

I’VE started this week very much on the back foot, having backed a stack of non-runners in the ante-post markets, but at least I get the chance to have a fresh look.

At the start of the week I thought the Coral Charge (2.00) at Sandown might be between Wokingham first and second Outback Traveller and Brando.

Outback Traveller, the one I backed, doesn’t go, but now Brando is no better than ??-?, which is pretty short considering he has two rivals rated above him and four within 4lb of him. And that’s before you take into account a moderate draw in stall eight.
