Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted Thursday at 02:28 AM Journalists Share Posted Thursday at 02:28 AM What Pakenham Cup Day 2024 Where Pakenham Racecourse – 420 Nar Nar Goon-Longwarry Rd, Tynong VIC 3813 When Saturday, December 21, 2024 First Race 12:15pm AEDT Visit Dabble This Saturday, the $300,000 Listed Pakenham Cup (2500m) and The Supernova (1400m) worth $1 million headline what is arguably the best day of racing Pakenham has ever seen. A perfect Good 4 track is expected, with the rail in the true position. The action on Pakenham Cup Day 2024 commences at 12:15pm AEDT. Pakenham Cup Tip: Goldman Goldman was never going to bridge the seven-length margin behind Floating in the Listed ATC Cup (2000m) at Rosehill, but he certainly deserved to finish closer than he did. The one-time Melbourne Cup fancy comes to the 2024 Pakenham Cup third-up, and with little petrol being spent last time out, he should be ready to peak. From barrier four, it’s likely Beau Mertens will look to dictate terms throughout, and with very little pressure expected, Goldman should prove too hard to run down in Saturday’s feature. Pakenham Cup Race 9 – #5 Goldman (4) 6yo Gelding | T: Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott | J: Beau Mertens (56kg) Bet with Picklebet The Supernova Top Tip: Nadal Nadal was simply breathtaking when winning The Meteorite (1200m) at Cranbourne. The four-year-old gelding was ridden cold and launched a withering turn of foot to win by 2.8 lengths. The Pakenham home straight will suit him perfectly, and with a similar finish, Nadal should be good enough to win The Supernova and clinch the Southside Racing Series double. The Supernova Race 8 – #6 Nadal (12) 4yo Gelding | T: Ciaron Maher | J: Ethan Brown (58.5kg) Bet with Dabble Best Bet at Pakenham: Oh Too Good Oh Too Good doesn’t know how to run a poor race, winning four times from seven starts and finishing second on her other outings. The five-year-old mare was a gritty winner over 1500m at Cranbourne on November 23 when arguably peaking on her run late, so the step back to 1400m looks ideal. With Private Jumbo drawn directly outside her, Oh Too Good should gain the run of the race. Best Bet Race 6 – #7 Oh Too Good (3) 5yo Mare | T: Kevin Daffy | J: Daniel Stackhouse (56kg) Bet with Neds Next Best at Pakenham: Samangu Samangu has been dominant in both her starts this time in, winning by a combined 5.3 lengths at Ballarat and Caulfield Heath on December 4. She managed to lead throughout under a well-rated Jordan Childs steer, and from barrier two, the recipe for success looks to be the same. If Samangu delivers anything like what she put forward previously, she will not be for catching over 1200m. Next Best Race 3 – #10 Samangu (2) 4yo Mare | T: Grahame Begg | J: Jordan Childs (55kg) Bet with BlondeBet Saturday quaddie tips for Pakenham Pakenham quadrella selections Saturday, December 21, 2024 2-3-7-9-14-15-16 3-6 1-2-3-4-5 3-5-7-8-12-15 | 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...
