PAKENHAM SYNTHETIC   29 Jun 2026
 
GOING: G

Grant's Plumbing & Drainage Solutions Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: SYNTHETIC   Clouds (Max: 15)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

In the absence of noted leaders, Notiramisuforyou and Watch The Fort may be the ones to set a moderate tempo. SHARES (7) knuckled down strongly on debut to get within a length of the winner over 1200m here. Is sure to have come on from that and is drawn much kinder this time. Bold showing anticipated. SOUNDWAVE (8) caught the eye last start here when charging into fourth after settling at the rear. Drawn to get back again but can cause a headache late if the pace is genuine. CIRCUS LIGHTS (15) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing fourth over 1300m at Seymour. Likely improver who is among the better chances. POETIC WAY (6) was too bad to be true on debut here when well supported. Childs sticking is a good push and the blinkers go on. Watch for sharp improvement. SUGGESTED PLAY: Shares to win.
