PAKENHAM SYNTHETIC   01 Jul 2024
 
GOING: N

Sportsbet Jockey Watch BM64 Handicap 1000m

Track: SYNTHETIC   Clouds (Max: 11)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Solid early tempo set by Zuetoro. ZUETORO (6) will have to raise the bar from a maiden win on debut at Swan Hill but is in the right camp to do so with Price & Kent Jnr. Certainly more depth here but at each-way odds he can get into the finish. CLOCK STRIKES (3) is coming off a soft victory by 2.3 lengths at this track and distance albeit in a slightly easier race. He's a consistent type who drops 1kg in weight for the win and will be well fancied for the double. HISSY FIT (7) wasn't bad first up at Mornington over this trip in a stronger race, beaten 3.8 lengths. Fitter and back in class, she should take beating. MAGWAZI (5) resumes. She showed good ability last time in and maps well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Zuetoro each-way.
