PAKENHAM SYNTHETIC   16 Jun 2025
 
GOING: G

Sportsbet Fast Form BM58 Handicap 1600m

Track: SYNTHETIC   Rain (Max: 14)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

A solid tempo on the cards with Eucalypt heading them off. PRESERVATOR (4) should be ready to fire third up. He's been big odds in two runs back from a spell but run really well in both over shorter trips. Quickly to 1600m here is a slight query given he's previously been best at 1400m but if he gets across with relative ease he can win. NUTS 'N' BOLTS (1) is racing consistently of late, not beaten far in fourth here over 1400m last time out. Never tested at a mile but is certainly classy enough. LAUGH WITH ME (11) is coming off a narrow win over this route last time out in a BM64, getting home by a nose. Up 3kg now but this suits again. APPPLEBY (10) can mix her form but has each way claims on latest while VAAFEE (5) is going well and can figure. SUGGESTED PLAY: Preservator to win.
