PAKENHAM   18 Oct 2024
 
GOING: S(7)

Sportsbet Nobody Does It Easier F&M BM64 Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT7   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Expecting Saufiana to set a genuine tempo after crossing from wide out. ILLATIVE (5) has always had a big boom on her and maybe hasn't quite delivered, but she's got ability and ran well enough fresh without winning at Geelong, finishing second as a $1.80 favourite. She did have some slight issues there too and getting to Pakenham where she won her maiden, she should prove hard to beat. TIZ TIME (4) is lightly raced and progressive and did beat a good one here last year. SAUFIANA (7) was okay fresh and will be fitter. Can figure in the finish. CAPRICORN STAR (11) resumes and must be respected fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Illative to win.
