Pakenham Race 2 - Phil Green's 'A Big Turkey' Classic Mdn Plate
Tricky race. FIRE TYPE (4) has upside and that could prove the difference. Two runs this time in have been good, sticking on well for third there in a decent maiden. He should relish getting to 1600m now being by The Autumn Sun and can get the job done. KADDARI (8) has had a few chances but is going well. She just missed at Seymour over this route two back, perhaps unsuited back in trip last time when out sprinted. She can bounce back. DETROIT DREAMING (10) has placed in her past two, edged out by the barest of margins at Moe over this distance last time out. She'll get every hope from the inside gate and should take catching. TITAN'S SPIRIT (2) wasn't beaten all that far at Geelong last time and is in the mix. HALLOWED HALLS (5) could be an improver at his third start.

Was at very long odds at debut, ran last of 7 at Cranbourne Mdn-Sw on February 6 over 1200m, 12 len behind Arlington Row with 59.5kg at $201. Don't think he will trouble this field.
