Races MR Pakenham

Had a lot of ground to make up late and did so for an excellent third 3.3L at Caulfield 3Y Hcp over 1200m Soft 7. Midfield, even effort 2.1L at Ballarat Vg Stockade over 1200m. Won second-up in the past.

Went forward to sit just off the leaders but served up a below par finish 8.6L at Flemington Leilani Final over 1400m. Loomed ominously on the lead but outgunned late when runner-up 0.4L at Ballarat F&M Bm78 over 1200m. Can win second-up, consider.

Back half, didn't let down when asked to go 5.2L at Flemington Bm80 Grand Hcp over 1100m. Ran on well late into fourth after giving leaders a head start 2.1L at Rosehill Gardens Bm78 over 1100m Soft 7.

Failed to improve on the front runners after settling midfield 7.1L at Flemington Bm84 over 1200m Soft 7. No match for rivals and never progressed into the race from midfield 4.3L at The Valley Bm84 over 1200m Soft 6. Is a first-up winner.

Rearward, boxed in, good once clear 1.5L at Flemington Bm80 Grand Hcp over 1100m. Galloped home strongly for third after sitting behind the speed 0.6L at Ballarat F&M Bm78 over 1200m.

Ran on well into third from sitting midfield 1.3L at Ladbrokes Geelong Bm64 over 1100m Soft 7. Super job to make up many lengths from back in the field late for fifth 1.2L at Ballarat F&M Bm78 over 1200m.

Handy, under pump early, poor, vetted clear 7.9L at Flemington Bm70 over 1100m Soft 7. Settled a long way back and finished the race well into fourth 4L at Caulfield Heath F&M Bm70 over 1000m. Second-up winner, rates highly.

Led and gave all but left nothing left for finish 4.3L Creswick Listed over 1200m. Still beaten easily but last part was encouraging for sixth after getting well back 4.4L at Ballarat Bm74 over 1100m. Warrants respect with second-up stats.

Settled midfield and tried gallantly to make ground 1.4L at Sportsbet Sandown Lakeside Bm70 over 1200m Soft 5. Came from a mile back to get within a few lengths 1.8L at Ballarat F&M Bm78 over 1200m. A winner second-up in the past, must regard.

Pounced on the lead and ran away from rivals to win convincingly 2L at Ballarat F&M Mdn-Sw over 1100m. Never headed once found the lead and shot clear for a dominant win 3.3L at Caulfield Heath F&M Bm64 over 1200m.

Sat on the pace and was only run down in the last 100m to hold third 0.2L at Ladbrokes Geelong Bm64 over 1400m. Utilised early pace settling behind the leader but was spent late for fifth 4.1L at Ladbrokes Geelong F&M Bm64 over 1300m Heavy 10.
