Racing Tips – Thursday Night Best Bets for Pakenham

Racing heads back to Pakenham on Thursday night where our best bet comes from the Nick Ryan stable.

Best Bet

9. Engeline
Pakenham R4 (6.45pm)

Highly confident that Engeline is better than what she showed last time out at Benalla. Go off her first run at Bendigo where she chased home subsequent city winner Vail Mountain impressively. She has a couple of key gear changes into this and jumped out nicely in between runs.

Recommended Price: $3.50
Confidence Level: 4/5

3. Angland
Pakenham R2 (5.45pm)

Angland is a short priced favourite here but entitled to be so. His debut win here a fortnight ago was as spectacular as they come, with the final margin being more than seven lengths. He smashed the clock in the process. Looks a future star and entitled to be very short.

Recommended Price: $1.50
Confidence Level: 5/5


8. Deciduous
Pakenham R5 (7.15pm)

Deciduous is first up here from the Waterhouse/Bott stable and looks primed to run a big race off some nice trials and jumpouts. The gelding has shown nice ability in his four starts to date and should get a good run on speed.

Recommended Price: $9.00
Confidence Level: 3/5


1. Field of Praise
Pakenham R8 (8.45pm)

Field of Praise gets a lovely class drop here in BM58 company from the much stronger BM64 and metro races that the gelding has been contesting of late. He has a race fitness edge over key rival Sirius Statement and the benefit of the claim for Luke Cartwright.

Recommended Price: $2.50
Confidence Level: 4.5/5
