Bridgestone Select Pakenham Maiden Plate 1000m Track: SYNTHETIC Clouds (Max: 13) Rail: True Entire Circuit. |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Genuine tempo with Stella Boo to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. POCKET SIZE (7) resumes. She did run a narrow third on debut in her maiden campaign at Ballarat before a solid effort at Caulfield. Maps for a good run here and finds a winnable maiden to kick off in. Big chance. NEVER LET ME GO (6) can mix her form, just fair last start at Pakenham but good over this trip prior at Ballarat. She comes back to the 1000m here which should suit and her best would go close. EL BEATLE (1) is a lightly raced type who ran quite well on resumption at Sale in a small field. Can improve. PRAIRIE LEGEND (4) resumes. Formerly with Chris Waller, he could improve here in a much easier maiden. STELLA BOO (8) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pocket Size to win.
