Pakenham Race 2 - Macktow Mdn Plate
KNEE DEEP (5) ran a strong race on debut at Geelong, finishing fourth in a bunched finish. The pace wasn't slow there and the ground was heavy so it should be a decent reference. By Dundeel, he should relish the rise to 1600m here and with natural improvement he can get the job done. SIAM EMERALD (3) presents third up. The fresh run at Echuca was good before a sound effort at Ballarat when drawing wide, beaten under a length. Sets up nicely from the ideal gate here and will take catching. BORN SURVIVOR (1) is going well, finishing third in his past three starts, beaten again at $1.35 last start at Wodonga. Not the most reliable but he'll break through eventually and should be a much bigger price this time. DUNTULM LASS (10) was good over this trip at Cranbourne last time out and gets in with just 52kg for the 4kg claiming apprentice. DENY ENTRY (4) is a Fiorente gelding on debut who can run well at a suitable trip.

Dual acceptor. At the latest run 3rd in a small field at Wodonga Mdn-Sw on November 9 over 1590m, 3 len behind Jappalouis carrying 59.5kg at $1.35. The start before that came from midfield; 3rd of 11 at Wangaratta Mdn-Sw on October 27 over 1400m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Of The View with 59.5kg at $9.50. Well backed last time and could repay punters this time.

Returns from a 31-day let-up. Most recently second last of 9 at Swan Hill Mdn-Sw on October 28 over 1600m, 9 len behind Devil's Craft with 59.5kg at $41. The start before that second last of 9 at Warrnambool Mdn-Sw on September 9 over 1700m, in the wet; 11 len behind American Gas carrying 59.5kg at $51. Unlikely to threaten.
