PAKENHAM
BEST BET
R6 No.2 $2.70
Won the past two starts at Pakenham and primed to complete a hat-trick. Suited up in grade and distance.
NEXT BEST
R4 No.10 $2.60
Nine start maiden but placed in four of his past five starts including three second prizes. Gets his chance.
VALUE BET
R1 No.6 $14
Led and only collared late last start at Pakenham - best run of the 11-start maiden’s career to date. Craig Newitt sticks and drawn to lead again.
R9 No.8 $11
Solid return at Ballarat, led and run down late. Drawn to get a similar run and could be hard to hold out.
LAY OF THE DAY
R5 No.3 $2.40
Good winner last start at Ballarat, able to lead and dictate the race. Harder here from the wide barrier.
