In the middle of a five-game road trip, the Hawks travel to

Zipping Classic An intriguing renewal of this event, with five members of the Melbourne Cup beaten brigade and the Victoria Derby fourth, So Si Bon, the leading contenders. The key to this race is the fact it is run at weight-for-age. Proven form under such conditions is important, and the two with runs on the board are Who Shot Thebarman and Big Orange.Who Shot Thebarman was very good when a running-on fifth in the Cup; he ran equally well last year behind Prince Of Penzance before spacing his rivals in the Zipping Classic under an enterprising James McDonald ride. The field is tougher this time but Chris Wallers stayer is treading a known path to success.Big Orange will relish the step away from handicaps, meeting his Flemington rivals anywhere between 1kg and 5kg better off. He was plain in the big one, but he couldnt lead that day and is a live chance here if able to find his rhythm in front.Its interesting that Almoonqith contests this race and not the two-mile Sandown Cup, a race he won in 2015 and one he would go close to winning again had connections gone that way this year. He ran very well in both the Caulfield and Melbourne Cups and is a winning hope.The two Godolphin raiders, Beautiful Romance and Secret Number, have something to find on Flemington running, while So Si Bon was good in the Derby but that form hasnt been tested yet and three-year-olds havent done much this spring when tested in open company.Recommend Bet: Big Orange to win @ $5 with UBET, but play multiples with Who Shot Thebarman and Almoonqith.Sandown Guineas The Carbine Club on Derby day is usually the right form reference for this Group 2 race over 1600m, so its surprising that just one galloper to contest that race reappears at Sandown on Saturday. It looked to be a hot contest, and the runner-up at Flemington, Mortons Fork, can prove it was just that in a Sandown Guineas lacking in depth.?Mortons Fork was just touched off in the Carbine Club by Criterions half-brother Comin Through, who could well be one direct from the top drawer. ?Godolphin has a great record in the Sandown Guineas, having won it four times in the past eight years, and Mortons Fork is just the type to make it number five.?Standing in his way is the filly Jennifer Lynn, whose winning streak of three started in a Benchmark 64 at Coleraine before progressing to Listed company on Melbourne Cup day. She has something to find with the favourite, but is lightly raced and in-form Darren Weir runners must always be respected.Recommended Bet: Mortons Fork to win @ $2 with UBET, but go to town on an insurance quinella with Jennifer Lynn.Best Bet Sandown Race 6, No.1 Mortons Fork @ $2 with UBET For reasons stated above. Has been heavily backed, so the value looks to be gone, but hes been supported for a reason.Next Best Sandown Race 3, No.1 Qewy @ $2.20 with UBETHow Qewy isnt odds-on ranks alongside the Bermuda Triangle and Donald Trump becoming US President as one of lifes great mysteries. The Godolphin raider has been excellent since arriving in Australia, winning the Geelong Cup before running a game fourth in the Melbourne Cup. At Goodwood prior to coming over he finished well in front of Francis Of Assisi, last weeks 10-length winner of the Queen Elizabeth Stakes. The Sandown Cup is a pretty poor race this year -- most, if not all, of Qewys rivals are either out of form or wont stay two miles, or both. Get on now. Will start odds-on. Will win.Next, Next Best Sandown Race 2, No.4 Redkirk Warrior @ $2.40 with UBET Zipping Classic day always comprises horses who have been up a while, so freshness in the legs is often a key to success. Former Hong Kong galloper Redkirk Warrior contests the second race with just one run this prep under his belt, an eye-catching second to Sir Bacchus three weeks ago at Moonee Valley. Boasted some very handy form in Hong Kong last year, and, if his first run in a year wasnt too taxing, he should be winning this under 54kg. There are question marks over the two Darren Weir runners at the top of the weights, so couple Redkirk Warrior with his stablemate, Sovereign Nation, if youre keen on exotics.Over the Odds Sandown Race 4, No.3 Husson Eagle @ $7 with UBETGet the feeling this one has been laid out by trainer Patrick Payne for a first-up crack at this 1000m scamper. Husson Eagle has won two from four resuming from a spell and looks pretty well treated just 2kg above the minimum for a galloper who has beaten Group 1-placed Wild Rain at level weights. Should get a nice run in transit from gate five and could prove too strong down the roomy Sandown straight. Looks a really nice each-way bet.Under the Odds Sandown Race 8, No.4 Illustrious Lad @ $4.40 with UBETIs in very good form, and seemingly went to a new level down the Flemington straight last time, but the Kevin Heffernan Stakes is a new challenge altogether. Illustrious Lad takes on Group 1 winners Lucky Hussler and Under The Louvre, both of whom plummet in class here, at weight-for-age, and has drawn the outside marble in a field of 11. The chances dont end with the top two, either.Illustrious Lad is going the right way, no doubt, but he looks too short in an event that will test him like he hasnt been tested before.Lay of the Day Sandown Race 7, No.8 So Si Bon @ $4.20 with UBETAll spring punters have been sucked in by three-year-olds off low weights, and they have learned at a cost that carrying a postage stamp isnt a rite of passage to success. So Si Bon has 50.5kg in the Zipping Classic because thats what the weight-for-age scale decrees spring three-year-olds should carry; the colt hasnt beaten the handicapper. At any rate, we dont yet know the merit of the Derby form, which the son of So You Think represents via his fourth placing. Although So Si Bon is good, hed need to be verging on exceptional to beat these seasoned stayers. And Im not sure he is.Multi of the Weekend Sandown Race 2, No.4 Redkirk Warrior - PLACE @ $1.47Sandown Race 3, No.1 Qewy - WIN @ $2.20Sandown Race 4, No.3 Husson Eagle - PLACE @ $2.50Sandown Race 6, No.1 Mortons Fork - WIN @ $2Sandown Race 8, No.1 Lucky Hussler - PLACE @ $1.83Multi price: $29.59 with UBET Yasmani Grandal Brewers Jersey .

BOSTON -- Boston College dribbled out the clock, and the few hundred fans at the Conte Forum rose to sing the school fight song.So this is what it looks like after a BC victory.The Eagles snapped a 20-game losing streak on Tuesday night, getting 16 points from Jerome Robinson and 13 rebounds from Mo Jeffers to beat Maryland-Eastern Shore 73-57. It was BCs first victory since Dec. 30, 2015, including an 0-18 Atlantic Coast Conference record that was a first for the league.All summer, we had a bad taste in our mouths, said forward Connar Tava, a graduate transfer who wasnt a part of the 2015-16 team that went 7-25 and lost its last 19 games. This was a stepping stone. We need to build off it.Tava had 10 rebounds, and A.J. Turner scored 13 points for BC (1-1), which opened the season with a loss to Nicholls State that stretched the losing streak to 20.Coach Jim Christian said his players werent dwelling on the skid -- especially the five freshmen and two transfers who had no part of it.Seven of them are 1-1. Those guys dont worry about any of that, he said. People outside worry about it -- and they should. But inside, we just needed to get better. We got better.Bakari Copeland scored 14 points and Dontae Caldwell had 10 rebounds for the Hawks (0-3).Copeland made the first basket of the game for the Hawks only lead. It was tied 5-all before BC scored eight straight points. The Eagles went on an 8-1 run near the end of the first half to open a 39-27 lead.The Hawks got as close as seven pointss, 49-42, with 12 minutes left in the second.dddddddddddd But Ky Bowman hit a 3-pointer, Jordan Chatman made a basket and A.J. Turner and Garland Owens had dunks to make it a 16-point game.The thing I really wanted to see was a response, Christian said. We came out the first five minutes and played hard. Thats progress.BIG PICTUREMaryland-Eastern Shore: In the middle of a five-game road trip, the Hawks travel to Kansas, Colorado and Louisiana before returning home.Boston College: The losing streak is over. The Eagles will try to pick up a couple of more wins on the non-conference schedule before resuming ACC play on Jan. 1 against Syracuse.SHORE SCOREThe Hawks scored 71 and 73 points in their two losses, to George Washington and Maryland-Baltimore County. They had gone 23 straight games without scoring as few as 57.To keep them at (57) was a huge step forward for us, Christian said.MORE REGRETSRobinson was a freshman on the BC team that went winless in the ACC, but its the 79-73 loss to Nicholls State that was on his mind this weekend.That night, I didnt really talk to anybody. It was not the way I wanted the season to start, he said. We went right back to work after it. We didnt want to have a relapse.UP NEXTMaryland-Eastern Shore: Plays at Wichita State on Sunday.Boston College: Hosts Stony Brook on Sunday in the opening round of the Barclays Center Classic. ' ' '
