Best Bet

7. Van Gerwen
Pakenham R3 (5.45pm)

Van Gerwen was a brilliant winner last time out at Moe and there is no reason he can’t repeat the dose here. The gelding broke his maiden over the 2500m here back in January so to be running so well over shorter trips is a very positive sign as he gets back out in distance. He will lead and take a lot of running down.

Recommended Price: $4.40
Confidence Level: 4/5


More Racing Tips

1. Animal
Pakenham R4 (6.15pm)

Animal was a beaten favourite on debut but he shouldn’t have lost too many admirers finishing third, especially given that the horse that beat him there, Egerton, came out and won brilliantly again since. Animal will be better for that experience and was scratched from Sale yesterday where he looked a great chance to run here instead.

Recommended Price: $2.20
Confidence Level: 4.5/5


2. Jewel Bay
Pakenham R7 (7.45pm)

Jewel Bay is an interesting runner here having his first run for new trainer Andrea Leek. He showed nice ability when previously trained by the Hayes brothers, but his jumpouts suggest the Leek stable might have found a way to improve him. Well and truly capable of figuring here at a nice price if he has.

Recommended Price: $5.50
Confidence Level: 3/5
