PAKENHAM SYNTHETIC   30 Jun 2025
 
GOING: N

Sportsbet Jockey Watch BM64 Handicap 1000m

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

Pace genuine with Flying Ace and Arroance pressing hard closely followed by Regal Secret and Olive Baguette. Smaller field than most on the card, but looks a terrific contest. HARPALEE (5) didn't enjoy the soft track resuming at Sale but is much better than that and could improve sharply here. Keep safe. BONNIE AMORE (7) rarely runs a bad race, and will take beating today as usual. REGAL SECRET (4) looked good enough resuming and has won second-up before. Each-way player. AREYOUREADYFORIT (8) was a maiden at Ballarat resuming, and takes the next logical step now. Consider. OLIVE BAGUETTE (6) lightly raced gelding who was beaten 1.3 lengths into second last start over 1200m at Cranbourne. Hard to fault and worth serious consideration. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 5,7,8,6.
