Pakenham Race 1 - Ladbrokes Odds Surge Mdn Plate
CIRCUS CIRCUS (1) looks the one to beat. She's off a short spell here having run over 1100m here when last seen on March 5th, sticking on fairly for fifth. She showed ability back in the Spring and can improve quickly out in trip. JENNI POPPINS (3) was sent out $1.80 favourite first up over this route on wet going, 2nd in a small field there. She should come on from that and can go one better. WAGGISH (9) resumes. She was okay on debut in what has turned out to be a handy maiden behind subsequent Listed winner Thanks Gorgeous. Like her over 1200m this time. SPARKLING AWARD (8) was well backed first up at Kilmore but just battled on the heavy going. Willing to give another chance for the top yard. FORWARD HO (2) made good improvement second up in the same Kilmore race and has claims off that.
