Cranbourne racing tips

Race 1. (18:15) The Valley Southside Maiden (1500m)

#9 – Lisa Lass @ $4.60

Lisa Lass is knocking on the door of a win after four second placings from five starts, and this race is there for the taking.

The four-year-old mare by Brutal was only a half-length behind Topmost at Cranbourne last start, which is a good form guide.

We’re taking the each-way odds on offer.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (18:45) Down Syndrome Victoria Maiden (1200m)

#8 – Alien Angel @ $4.00

Punters get each-way odds for Alien Angel, who is a well-related French-bred runner.

The three-year-old filly by Zelzal has good jumpout form at Pakenham, and he has been backed to win on debut.

Her odds could continue to shorten on race night.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (19:15) Clamms Seafood BM64 (1200m)

#1 – Exit @ $2.35

Ciaron Maher lines up Exit, who scored at Sandown last preparation, and she hasn’t been too far away from the prize since.

The three-year-old filly by Bivouac ran third at Flemington two back behind Crossbow and Hillier, and we expect that form to hold up well at Cranbourne.

2kg comes off her back to help with the big weight.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 4. (19:45) Symal Summer Middle Distance Series BM66 (2060m)

#5 – Powerful Tongue @ $5.50

Powerful Tongue gave them a good licking when scoring at Sandown by 1.5 lengths last start, which is a good form guide.

The five-year-old son of Toronado turned his form around nicely with the performance, and the penny might have dropped now.

He loves a good track, so the conditions are ideal.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (20:15) Big Swing Golf Handicap (1000m)

#9 – Educated @ $1.65

We’re taking the short odds for Educated, who is worth including in horse racing multi bets.

The three-year-old filly by Zoustar won on debut at Tatura by 1.5 lengths before spelling, and her odds have firmed after opening at $1.85.

She has a bright future, so include her in multi picks.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 6. (20:45) Ladbrokes 55 Second Challenge BM70 (955m)

#1 – Jennyanydots @ $3.80

Looking to make a winning return is Jennyanydots, who owns three wins and five placings from 10 starts.

The Mitchell Freedman-trained mare by Magnus loves this distance, and she owns two second placings from two fresh up starts.

Getting 2kg off her back is enough to take her close.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 7. (21:15) Bottle Shop Handicap (1200m)

#10 – Escarpa @ $4.20

Each-way odds are with Escarpa, who scored a good win fresh up before adding four consecutive placings.

The four-year-old mare by Cliff’s Edge has yet to win over the distance, but she has been close with four placings.

Getting the inside draw is enough to see her beat a tough field.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (21:45) Ladbrokes Hosted Pots C1 (1500m)

#1 – Time Allowed @ $4.80

European form stacks up well at Cranbourne, and he scored a good win over 1609m last time out.

He hasn’t raced since June, but the form measures up better than local form, and money could come for him on race night.

Logan Bates takes 2kg off his back, which helps.

Stake: 2 Units
