Visit Dabble


The Victorian night racing season continues at Pakenham with a competitive eight-race meeting scheduled for Thursday evening. A perfect summer evening is forecast, and with the track rated a Good 4 at the time of acceptances and the rail back in its true position, there will be no excuses for fancied runners throughout the night. The first of the Pakenham races is set to go at 5:15pm AEDT.

Best Bet at Pakenham: Hey Now Hey Now

Hey Now Hey Now caught the eye on debut at the Pakenham 1400m on December 20 when hitting the line with intent to finish second. In a race that was run to suit those up on speed, the three-year-old filly did well to finish within two lengths of the winner. From barrier three, if Craig Williams can have the Pierro filly settled in a mid-field position, all Hey Now Hey Now has to do is replicate last start’s finish to justify her short quote with .

Best Bet

Race 7 – Hey Now Hey Now Silks#8 Hey Now Hey Now (3)

3yo Filly | T: Robert Hickmott | J: Craig Williams (56kg)

Next Best at Pakenham: Under My Thumb

Under My Thumb showed a bit of ability in her first racing preparation without breaking through for a victory. The four-year-old mare filled a minor placing in each of her three starts, and on the back of a couple of handy trials leading into this, she looks the goods. Michael Dee sticks on board and, from barrier five, will look to have the Bel Esprit mare lead from barrier to box.

Next Best

Race 3 – Under My Thumb Silks#6 Under My Thumb (5)

4yo Mare | T: Ben, Will & JD Hayes | J: Michael Dee (57.5kg)

Best Value at Pakenham: Courting Emily

Courting Emily was massive in defeat on debut at Bendigo on December 15 before finishing midfield with little luck at Stawell last time out. The four-year-old gelding saw nothing but backsides at a crucial time and was beaten by three lengths when hardly tested. Barrier seven on Thursday means Harry Coffey should have the son of Intello in clear air approaching the home term, and if Courting Emily replicates the finish she produced on debut, she should prove too hard to hold out at an each-way price with horse racing bookmakers.

Best Value

Race 4 – Courting Emily Silks#1 Courting Emily (7)

4yo Gelding | T: Ben, Will & JD Hayes | J: Harry Coffey (59.5kg)
