Pakenham Race 2 - Headspace Pakenham Mdn Plate
ANNABELLE SUNSHINE (5) is an 11-start maiden who finished fourth, beaten 4 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1300m at Seymour. Will take a lot from that hit-out and looks a strong chance to break through in what isn't the strongest race ever run. GYPSY MOON (9) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 4 lengths back in third over 1200m at Cranbourne. Hard to beat in this suitable contest. BOLSHIE (2) is hard to tip with any confidence given he has placed just once from 21 starts, but the recent assignments have been tougher than this so he gets his best chance in a while to be a key player. DOWNTHERABBITHOLE (6) failed to figure again last time over 1600m at Moe, beaten 9 lengths into eighth, but is better suited here and in well after the claim.

Last start 8th of 10 at Moe Mdn-Sw on April 25 over 1600m, 9 len behind She's Got The Cash with 57.5kg at $26. The run before that second last in a small field at Cranbourne F&M Mdn-Sw on April 10 over 1600m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Charlecote Mill carrying 58kg at $13. Rates highly in this line-up so expecting a much better run.

Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign fifth of 10 at Gunbower Mdn-Sw October 4 over 1800m, 4.5 len behind Grunnettan carrying 57.5kg at $9. Previously first up; eighth of 10 at Cranbourne 3yo F Mdn-Sw July 17 over 1200m, soft track; 8 len behind Blue Hawaiian carrying 57kg at $61. Happy to wait until she shows a bit more.

Resumes from a spell. Not seen since she finished last of 12 at Hobart Mdn-Sw July 7 2024 over 1200m, soft track; 12 len behind The Last Hurrah carrying 54.5kg at $81. On debut ran last of 10 at Hobart Mdn-Sw June 9 2024 over 1430m, soft track; 7 len behind Twinkledust carrying 53.5kg at $101. Tassie form was terrible, but in new hands and jumpouts haven't been too bad, so might be an improver at odds.

Resuming after nine months in the paddock. Finished off last campaign second last of 11 at Swan Hill Mdn-Sw August 24 over 1600m, 19 len behind Myers Delight with 57.5kg at $8.50. Previously first up; fifth of 11 at Warracknabeal Mdn-Sw July 12 over 1200m, on heavy track; 3 len behind Dibalta with 57.5kg at $9. Likely to be better with this one out of the way.
