Pakenham Race 2 - Grant's Plumbing & Drainage Solutions (Bm66)
TSITSIPAS (1) looks the one to beat. He's a handy enough stayer who can be slightly hit-or-miss, winning well two back at Mornington, fading late last time up in grade at Sandown Hillside. He comes back in grade here and this race lacks depth. He did beat HOLLANDIA (2) when they clashed at Mornington but there wasn't a whole lot between them. HOLLANDIA was only third up there and is now fifth up off another good run at Geelong. He could turn the tables. MADAME LEXIS (6) struggles to win but put in a good effort last time over this route when battling on well for a narrow third. She can land in a good spot again and figure in the finish. DIAMOND FLASH ONE (4) broke through for a smart maiden win here last time and has to be respected despite beating very little on that occasion. AMAWASHA (3) next best.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run, fourth in a small field at Sandown-Hillside Bm70 on January 28 over 2400m, 4 len behind Amizetta with 58kg at $12. The start before that came from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Mornington Bm62 January 1 over 2400m defeating Highland Glory with 60kg at $9. Going well and this suits.

Recent form sound. Last start 3rd of 9 at Geelong Bm66 on January 14 over 2418m, 2.25 len behind Amizetta carrying 58.5kg at $9. Before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at Mornington Bm62 on January 1 over 2400m, 1.3 len behind Tsitsipas with 57.5kg at $31. Coming along well and can break through.

Racing well recently. Last start won by 2 len at this track Mdn-Sw January 16 over 2500m defeating St Dominic with 59.5kg at $5.50. The run before that sat on the pace when 2nd of 7 at Sale Mdn-Sw on January 8 over 2200m, 0.5 len behind Gold Label Patch carrying 59.5kg at $61. Has upside and may pay to follow.

The race before that 7th of 13 at Seymour Bm62 on December 28 over 2000m, 3.5 len behind Oak Beach carrying 58kg at $13. Wasn't too far off the mark last time. Chance on last start effort.
