Cranbourne racing tips

Race 1. (18:08) Ladbrokes Mates Mod Pots Maiden (2600m)

#6 – High Heeled @ $7.50

High Heeled doesn’t need to improve too much to handle this field, and the odds are worth taking.

The four-year-old mare by Highland Reel ran well for third at Geelong two starts back, which is an ideal form guide.

She is good enough to beat the $1.24 favourite.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (18:38) Reed Cranes & Haulage Maiden (1000m)

#8 – Shapenapit @ $3.50

Looking to go one better than her debut second is Shapenapit, who finished under a length behind the winner at Mornington.

The three-year-old filly by Bivouac hit the line with a big finish, so she will likely drop back from the wide draw and flash home late.

Take the $3.40 odds before money comes for her.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (19:08) Berlado Coffee Maiden (1600m)

#3 – Veins Within Rock @ $7.00

Punters get each-way odds for Veins Within Rock, who placed at Kyneton and Wangaratta in preparation for this race.

The Matthew Brown-trained gelding has shown enough speed to handle this field, and he gets some gear changes that should work in his favour.

It’s an even field, so take the odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (19:38) Shawn Mendis Lawyers Maiden (1300m)

#7 – Blankfield @ $2.40

Most of the money has come for Blankfield, who ran second on debut at Cranbourne, and there is plenty of improvement to come.

The three-year-old gelding by Blue Point ran at $13 odds, but there is much more betting support this time around.

That’s good to see, and he should give punters a good sight.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 5. (20:08) Paint Place Cranbourne BM70 (1300m)

#3 – Regal Tycoon @ $2.30

Boasting winning form is Regal Tycoon, who is already a three-time winner from five starts this preparation.

The four-year-old mare by Written Tycoon has yet to finish worse than third in three attempts at Cranbourne, and she is loving racing this season.

60kg isn’t easy, but she is the top winning hope.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 6. (20:38) Browns Sawdust & Shavings BM66 (2600m)

#6 – Wealdstone @ $5.50

Winning form can be tough to come by for Wealdstone, but there isn’t much to this field, and he could take advantage.

The six-year-old son of Free Eagle should appreciate dropping to 55kg, and that’s enough to bring him into contention.

Take the odds before late bets come his way.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (21:08) The Big Screen Company BM62 (1000m)

#2 – King West @ $6.50

King West improved to run second last time out at Cranbourne, which should be a good form guide for this level of racing.

He runs his best races at the track with four starts for two wins and a placing, and we priced him $4, so punters get a value price from bookmakers.

61kg is a big weight to carry, but abiity takes him close.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 8. (21:38) Waterpark Southside Cranbourne BM62 (1600m)

#11 – Waco Kid @ $3.20

Seeking back-to-back wins is Waco Kid, who was too quick for them at Wangaratta last time out.

The four-year-old son of Divine Prophet opened at $3.80 before firming quickly, so the betting support is a good sign.

He should be right around the mark in an even race.

Stake: 1.5 Units
