Cranbourne racing tips
—
Seychelles has been close to breaking through after two runs for two placings, and this is a winnable race in the opener.
The three-year-old filly by Priosir is bred to be better than average and coming off a second placing at Flemington is a good form guide.
This is her time to exit maiden grades, so take the odds.
Stake: 2.5 Units
Punters get value odds for Highstrung, who has promised to deliver on many occasions, but keeps coming up short.
The three-year-old didn’t fire at Donald last time out when hanging, but a more professional effort is expected at Cranbourne.
It’s last-chance saloon, but the odds are appealing.
Stake: 1 Unit
This race is never easy to predict, but we’re going with a proven winner of six races from 22 starts.
The eight-year-old son of Star Witness didn’t fire fresh up at Tatura, but that was a tough race, and this is more up his alley.
We’re happy to include him in our each-way picks.
Stake: 1 Unit
Money is with Let It Beel, which isn’t surprising given his form against some tough midweek fields.
The three-year-old son of Savabeel ran third at Bendigo two back before finishing fourth at Sandown behind some smart types.
This is easier, and it could result in a win.
Stake: 2.5 Units
Yet to finish worse than second in four starts is Coco Jen, who owns two wins and two second placings.
The five-year-old mare won at Kilmore two back before running second behind Gold Medallist at Sandown, and it’s an unbeaten runner.
The form stacks up nicely, so put her on top.
Stake: 2 Units
Punters get value odds for El Tercero, who hasn’t fired in two runs back from a spell, but it’s only a matter of time before he gets back to winning form.
The Busuttin/Young-trained gelding scored consecutive wins last preparation, and those wins came at a similar track in Pakenham.
He’s worth including in picks at the odds.
Stake: 1 Unit
Charcoals is flying this preparation with three consecutive wins, including a tough effort at Moonee Valley last time out.
The son of Too Darn Hot improved his record to seven wins from 12 starts, and that record is tough to overlook in the Apache Cat Classic.
We recommend taking the $3.60 odds before late money comes.
Stake: 2 Units
Big odds are available for Rick’s Cafe, who owns two placings from two starts at Cranbourne.
The outsider looked good when winning at Sandown three starts back, and if that Rick’s Cafe turns up, punters could be happy.
55kg is ideal for the old timer, so include him in picks.
Stake: 1 Unit
Wondering Spirit is a solid each-way chance following a win at Mornington, and the form should stack up nicely out of that race.
The four-year-old son of Ribchester owns a win and four placings from seven starts, so it has been a nice start to his career.
It’s an even field, so include him in the last.
Stake: 1 Unit
