Pakenham Synthetic Tips July 3

Work Armour Solutions Maiden Plate Tips (Race 2)

Pakenham Synthetic Roughie - Race 2 No. 1 Fox Rocks

Trained by Sunny Reeve, the gelding headed into his debut at this venue last month without a barrier trial and with that in mind, the selection can be expected to show marked improvement for that debut experience.

Racing from the rear of mid-division that day, the three-year-old suffered interference and was carried wide before hanging in the straight, finishing sixth in that contest.

The pick was beaten less than five lengths by more experienced rivals on that occasion, doing best of the two newcomers in the field. That effort came over 1000m on the synthetic track and the pick is expected to appreciate the step up in distance here.

The blinkers worn on that occasion are retained here and he may prove capable of springing a surprise under New Zealand hoop Dylan Turner.

Pakenham Synthetic Next Best Bet - Race 6 No. 6 Stay In Your Lane

The son of Shamus Award has shown a liking for this venue in the past, winning twice and placing second twice from his four starts here.

The most recent of those saw the four-year-old come from mid-division to deliver a victory by just under one-and-a-half-lengths over this trip on June 20. That triumph came at Benchmark 58 level and followed a fair sixth over 2100m in a similar event at Ballarat Synthetic.

The step up in class should prove no issue with the gelding having been narrowly beaten in a similar race to this when runner-up here last October.

Daniel Stackhouse, on board last time out, is a positive jockey booking once more and he should prove capable of overcoming a wide draw on the Ben & JD Hayes-trained pick.

RMBL Investments Rising Stars Race Tips (Race 7)

Pakenham Synthetic Best Bet - Race 7 No. 5 Our Warrior

The pick showed plenty of ability when debuting with a third in a 1214m maiden event at Moe back in January.

Racing from behind the speed that day, he confirmed that promise when breaking his maiden upped to 1457m at Kilmore the following month.

While that race has failed to produce any subsequent winners, the gelding won with something in hand that day and recorded a solid effort on his only subsequent outing.

That first start against previous winners came in a metro event at Sandown Lakeside at the start of March when registering a fifth-place finish in a small field 1400m Benchmark 64 event.

The gelding should have no issues with the drop in trip and the decision to head here rather than back to Sandown Lakeside on Wednesday can pay dividends with a first-up victory.

EquineTrain Centre BM70 Handicap Tips (Race 8)

Pakenham Synthetic Value Bet - Race 8 No. 2 Dio

The four-year-old was the subject of a steward's enquiry when ridden from off the pace having previously raced close to the speed last time out and the change of running style appeared to be no issue for the gelding with the selection finishing strongly to deliver a narrow victory in the 1000m Benchmark 64 handicap.

While that effort came on a heavy 9 track it’s of note that the pick performed adequately on his only previous start at this venue back in August last year.

While a wide draw is far from ideal here, it shouldn’t inconvenience too much given the son of Zoustar’s tactical versatility.

Highly promising apprentice Dakotah Keane, on board last time out is again in the saddle here and the pair look like value to salute for the second time together.
