Pakenham Race 1 - Community Bank Drouin & District Mdn Plate
HEADBANGER (2) has the benefit of race experience which should take her a long way. She was formerly with the Waterhouse & Bott yard, running well in a 2yo race at Hawkesbury back in April. Can't see her going backyard under Grahame Begg and she can make a winning start for the new yard. The majority of the dangers are on debut. NIMCHA (5) is a filly by Lonhro for the Freedman yard who has won a recent trial leading in. Must respect the top yard and connections, expect she goes well. YELLOWJACKET (11) is an I Am Invincible filly on debut for the Stokes yard on her home deck. She's jumped out well enough to be a serious player. MISS MARANDA (4) is a filly by Written Tycoon on debut for the Moody & Coleman yard. She's won a jumpout here and draws ideally. Keep safe. THEATRICAL QUEEN (9) ran well on debut at Mornington and should only be improved.

Resuming today after only having had one start and then had eight months break. At debut last start set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 8 at Hawkesbury 2yo Hcp on April 9 over 1100m, 1.3 len behind Grand Eagle carrying 55kg at $5.50. Had six recent trials to get ready for this. Last trial won a Cranbourne Synthetic jump-out on November 10. Race experience should set her up very well here.

Dual acceptor. At debut, 4th in a small field at Mornington 3yo F Mdn-Sw on November 10 over 1000m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Doubtland Diva carrying 57.5kg at $7. Solid effort there, can give a sight.

Dual acceptor. Raced twice to date. When well in the market at debut, didn't do much in the run home; 6th of 9 at Kyneton Mdn-Sw on October 9 over 1103m, 13 len behind Tennessee Bound carrying 55kg at $4.40. Second-up sat on the pace before fading to run last of 8 at Mornington F&M Mdn on November 2 over 1000m, 15 len behind Regina D'oro with 56.5kg at $16. Hasn't shown enough.
