PAKENHAM SYNTHETIC   30 Jun 2025
 
GOING: N

EquineTrain Centre Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: Synthetic   Clouds (Max: 12)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Expecting The Boss Man to bounce to the front and lead from the low draw. THE BOSS MAN (5) led most the way on debut at Ballarat, and just ran out of steam at the death. Fitter here and looks well placed for a maiden win. MADAM GRISELDA (10) only narrowly missed here in similar on June 16 and could go one better today without surprising. EMMCEE (14) is first-up here after showing promise in his debut campaign, and is one to keep very safe in this kind of company. MAXIMUS BON (3) next best after putting the writing on the wall with a resuming second on June 16. LENNYSTAR (9) racing well and although without a win has been in the money three times from six starts. Finished third at her most recent appearance over 1400m at this track. Include in all multiples. SUGGESTED PLAY: Very keen to stick with The Boss Man today.
