Pakenham opens its eight-race Friday night program on November 21 with a BM64, followed by a spread of maidens and BM62 events.

It’s a meeting with a few progressive runners resuming or building deeper into their campaigns, giving punters worthwhile angles to assess through the middle stages and into the back end of the card.

Pakenham Tips November 21

Ladbrokes Big Bets Maiden Plate Tips (Race 3)

Pakenham Favourite - Race 3 No. 6 Black Eyed Blonde

Respect any positive market push for Corviglia, a debutant who has shown potential at the jump-outs, and also for Rainy Night, who was luckless first-up and is suited up in trip.

Black Eyed Blonde is a deserving favourite, with the mare once again catching the eye late when rising from 1100m to 1400m on November 7.

She was a month between runs prior to that via her Moe effort, so the four-year-old will only strip fitter.

The form around most of her past outings reads well, including a brave second at Moe earlier in the year in a race won by Dollar Shot, who has since recorded another four victories.

Betavet Maiden Plate Tips (Race 4)

Pakenham Best Bet - Race 4 No. 3 Icaro

The main query is staying at 1600m, as he may be looking for further, however a big Pakenham circuit and a thin maiden lineup gives Icaro every chance to break through.

This lightly raced five-year-old has improved with each race start, and his latest effort was a chasing second behind Sketch at Caulfield Heath.

He gave 3.5kg to that Godolphin runner, who was a half-length beaten favourite prior to that in a Ballarat maiden where Strictly Business prevailed.

That filly went on to bolt in the Group 1 VRC Oaks two starts later, and that form surely stacks up in a set-weights maiden at Pakenham.

Wood Waste Recycling BM62 Handicap Tips (Race 6)

Pakenham Value Bet - Race 6 No. 6 Art 'N' Soul

Off an encouraging Geelong return when working home late for a fifth-place finish over 1400m, this gelding was respected in the market last time out at Cranbourne.

Art 'N' Soul was flat there, however he was stepping to 2025m, which is a significant leap in distance early in a prep from seven furlongs.

While that run looked plain, it remains the most competitive he has been second-up, and importantly, the four-year-old now has that distance hit-out under the belt.

He improved as his second campaign wore on, producing a maiden win on soft ground before an honest showing at Flemington at long odds.

Pakenham Next Best Bet - Race 7 No. 5 Youwroteuponit

While she didn’t beat much on debut over this track-and-trip in April, it was a tough performance from Youwroteuponit, who was spelled immediately after that autumn success.

She is prepared by the very astute Grahame Begg, and his runners often come to hand early in a prep, which is evident over the last 12 months with a 25% first-up strike rate in that period.

The mare has worked soundly in two Cranbourne jump-outs across spring, both in handy enough heats to suggest she is forward.

In what appears a modest fresh assignment against her own sex, Youwroteuponit wouldn’t need to be a world beater to get away with this.
