FormscanBy Tom Weekes - Connections of SANDARYANN have plotted an unusual route in his career thus far and while he is clearly no star, might prove good enough to win this. He made the pace in the Group 3 Eyrefield Stakes last year before predictably dropping away and similar tactics were again employed at Cork last month although he seemed to show vast improvement in finishing second. Bred in the purple on his dam's side and a half-brother to French Oaks winner Sarafina, he may have turning a corner recently and this polytrack debut might not prove any disadvantage. Hyperlapse showed some useful form last year and while he ultimately failed to win in four starts, did run to a good races in similar maidens. He steps up in trip now and while the lack a recent run isn't too much of a concern, he is vulnerable to any smart types. Written Word is a well related type and while well beaten on debut here recently, missed the break badly before running on nicely enough in the closing stages. Ming cost E50,000 as a yearling and is the 11th foal from his dam, who has produced seven winners, two of whom have been Listed winners in Italy. %0A
