Racing Tips – Friday Best Bets for Pakenham

Betseeker has you covered for free expert horse racing tips and best bets at Pakenham.

With no AFL football in Melbourne on Friday, twilight racing will help fill the void, with eight races to be run and won on the Pakenham Synthetic.

Best Bet

6. Prinzerro
Pakenham R8 (8.15pm)

Prinzerro drops back to the synthetic after some excellent performances in Saturday class, and he can record a much deserved win. He comes from the stable of Phillip Stokes, who has a phenomenal record on his home track, going at a 37% strike rate in the last year. Most of these have found their mark and he is relatively low rated compared to his ability.

Recommended Price: $3.30
Confidence Level: 4/5


More Racing Tips

11. Mystic Vamp
Pakenham R1 (4.45pm)

As you would expect from a 2200m maiden this isn’t the strongest of races, so with Mystic Vamp stepping up to this trip off the back of a couple of sharp runs over a mile she looks well placed. The Tony Noonan stable has been in very good form of late.

Recommended Price: $4.50
Confidence Level: 3/5


8. Vino Grande
Pakenham R3 (5.45pm)

Vino Grande has had just the one run for a fast finishing third back in May in the Classic for two year olds. It was a big run as it’s a tough track to make up ground at the best of times and he was held up for much of the straight. His recent trial at Echuca – against a hard fit last start winner – was very good.

Recommended Price: $3.00
Confidence Level: 4/5


6. Tradeworx
Pakenham R7 (7.45pm)

Tradeworx has stuck a rich vein of form of late with impressive back to back wins on the synthetic. The gelding clearly saves his best form for it, with three wins from seven on the artificial surface compared to zero from fourteen on grass. With 54Kg after the claim for Luke Cartwright he looks nicely placed even up in class.

Recommended Price: $6.00
Confidence Level: 3/5
