Racing: Tintin In America a fine prospect

Tintin In America is an outstanding prospect at Alexandra Park tonight after his superb win in the Futurity Stakes at Cambridge last Friday.

The 4yr-old, who is unbeaten in three starts this season, downed a good field at Cambridge with a brilliant finishing burst.

Tuhimata Glass, winner of the Breeders' Crown for 2yr-old trotters at Melton in August, is resuming in race 10 tonight.

David Butt has been engaged to drive Jaccka Sandy in the free-for-all at Melton tomorrow night with Gavin Lang confirmed for Bettor's Strike.

Butt is in Melbourne preparing Bondy for the Hunter Cup.

Jaccka Sandy, bred by Charlie and Ailsa Smaill, of Riversdale, has won 12 of his 25 starts since being sold to patrons of the Melbourne stable of Graeme Lang in April, 2007.

The Jeremys Gambit-Sachem Franco gelding had been unplaced in two starts in Southland.
