Pakenham Race 7 - Frankston Sand Soil & Mini Mix Hcp (64)
A good contest. GAMBINO (5) resumed further improved when winning a Sale Maiden and followed with a 1L defeat here in this grade. He dug deep in that and the longer sprint will suit. Draws awkwardly, but Zahra's booking is a positive, and a decent push for his chances. REINA ISABELLA (11) is in a leading barn and resumed with a 1.6L defeat at Moonee Valley. She has plenty up her sleeve, and Lane is a key jockey engagement. She's likely to go close. FEAR NO EVIL (4) looked sharp at the jumpouts and was heavily bet at Kyneton on debut, spacing the Maidens from the front. She's also in good hands, and a fitter, looks capable of taking the next step. NUTS 'N' BOLTS (1) is in the premier stable and spiked his figures when winning this grade at Bendigo. He won't have to improve much and include on an each-way basis.

Last start got back early 8th of 10 at Flemington Mares Hcp on March 29 over 1100m, 6 len behind A Little Deep carrying 54kg at $201. The race before that faded in the straight 5th of 7 at Cranbourne Bm64 on March 21 over 1600m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind Glenfinnan carrying 54kg at $5. Looks out of her depth.
