Cranbourne Race Track

BRIDAL WALTZ has two wins from four attempts this campaign and chased well to fall just short last start at Flemington. Won two of three as a favourite. One of the main hopes. ROMANI ITE DOMUM winner of last two at Geelong and Bendigo. Has genuine early speed. Leading contender. DAMEHOOD got the campaign off to a strong start winning when fresh and came on to finish midfield last start at Flemington. Commands serious thought. STORMBOURG first-up after 28 week spell and winner when on debut at Ballarat. Likely to settle back in the field. Among the chances.

KING OF ENTERPRISE has won at Sportsbet-pakenham and placed once this campaign but ran six lengths back from the winner last start at Flemington. Likely to race just off the speed. Rough claims. VERONA RUPES flying start to career and drawn the rails. Commands serious thought. MOUNT RINJANI bolted in last start to break maiden at Moonee Valley and rates highly with Luke Nolen aboard. Should run fitter for two previous outings. Hard to beat. I ONLY WISH has placed in four runs from five this campaign and first try at this distance. Expected to settle just off the speed. Hard to get enthused. PAPAL ARMY faded to finish one and a half lengths off the winner last start at Moonee Valley. Should run fitter for past attempts. Right in this.

THE GENIUS won once this prep at Cranbourne three runs back and faded to finish fourth last start at Moonee Valley. Blake Shinn has a strike rate of 32% for this trainer. Go well. KARBURAN faded to finish 14th last start at Flemington but drawn perfectly. Placed once this prep at Sale but still cannot entertain. AHURIRI finished in the middle of the pack last start at Flemington and rates highly with Damian Lane retaining the ride. Leading hope. STAUNCH amongst the placegetters last start running second at Ararat and two of four wins have come from dry ground. Won't be far away in the run. Expect to be right up there.
