Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 19 Journalists Share Posted March 19 What Pakenham Races Where Pakenham Racecourse – 420 Nar Nar Goon–Longwarry Rd, Tynong VIC 3813 When Thursday, March 21, 2024 First Race 5:45pm AEDT Visit Dabble Thursday promises another thrilling night of racing as Pakenham Racecourse hosts an exciting eight-race lineup. The track is rated a Good 4 with the rail positioned out 3m for the entire circuit. The racing action kicks off at 5:45pm AEDT. Best Bet at Pakenham: Moby Dick Maiden victories do not come any more impressive than what Moby Dick produced on debut on February 29. The three-year-old gelding settled towards the rear of the field, which had 13 runners, and unleashed a thunderous finish over 1200m to round up his rivals with relative ease. The son of Toronado put 3.8 lengths on his rivals on that occasion, and despite stepping into a BM64 on Thursday, a similar turn of foot should see Moby Dick keep his undefeated streak in tact through two starts. Best Bet Race 3 – #6 Moby Dick (9) 3yo Filly | T: Mick Price & Michael Kent (Jnr) | J: Blake Shinn (59.5kg) +125 with Neds Next Best at Pakenham: Modown Race fitness potentially got the better of Modown first-up over 1200m at Pakenham on February 29, but the step up to 1400m second-up from a spell should see the Toronado progeny bounce back to the winner’s stall. The three-year-old gelding chased home the classy Schwarz in Listed company during the Melbourne Cup Carnival when finishing second in the Springtime Stakes (1400m), so a repeat of that run at Pakenham should be more than good enough for him to salute. Craig Williams will have Modown settled towards the rear of the field, but with a swift finish, he should prove too good for Class 1 company. Next Best Race 6 – #1 Modown (6) 3yo Gelding | T: Charlotte Littlefield | J: Craig Williams (60kg) +110 with Picklebet Next Best Again at Pakenham: Umetini Umetini was a strong maiden victor at Sandown on February 28 and the way she finished off, suggested that the step up to the mile from 1400m second-up from a spell should be ideal. The four-year-old mare was initially left flat-footed, but picked up nicely under pressure to win by a half-length. Blake Shinn will have the Just A Way mare stalking the speed throughout. From there, Umetini should prove a touch too classy for this BM58 field on Thursday night. Next Best Again Race 7 – #7 Umetini (3) 4yo Mare | T: Ciaron Maher | J: Blake Shinn (61kg) +125 with Playup Thursday quaddie tips for Pakenham Pakenham quadrella selections Thursday, March 21, 2024 4-5-8-11 1-5 3-7 Field | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
