Turf talk:
- The track looks likely to be a Good 4 to start the meeting, but with warm conditions through the day it is likely to improve to a Good 3 rating, despite some late showers forecast.
- The rail goes out from the previous meeting and will be +6m the entire circuit.
- Giving a slight advantage to runners with positive race maps on what potentially could be a fast surface.
The stats that matter:
- Lachlan Neindorf has found good form with 15 wins from his last 100 rides. He has been going well here at Pakenham with a winning strike rate of 14% at a POT of +23.8%.
- Local trainer Bill Papazaharoudakis saddles up one runner tonight and usually produces good results here at his home track, with a winning strike rate of 17.5% at a POT of +61.5%.
Race 7
DIVINE JUSTICE looks close to a breakthrough win this prep, having run into the placings in both runs so far, and will drop slightly in grade from her last start. Her only career win came the only other time she has been third-up into a preparation, so expect she has the scope to produce a peak performance here today.

Race 8
ANGIEMARIE won her maiden here at Pakenham quite easily before a forgivable run last start in a stronger race at Cranbourne, where she pulled up with EIPH. She gets her chance to bounce back here today in what appears to be a favourable set-up, jumping from a low barrier and dropping down in grade.
