Cranbourne Race-by-Race Tips
Cranbourne Race 1: Reed Cranes & Haulage Leila Rose Foundation – 1300M (12:20)
Our pick: #3 – Maddiya @ $2.60
An impressive winner of three races during her first preparation. She has worked nicely towards this run, and she has been backed to win. Punters should expect a good resuming run.
Cranbourne Race 2: Frankston Sand Soil & Mix Colin Alderson Classic – 1400M (12:50)
Our pick: #1 – Vega for Luck @ $12.00
It’s an even betting contest, and Vega for Luck represents value. He went out too hard at Flemington, and Cranbourne is an easier track to settle on the pace and give a good kick in the final 200m.
Cranbourne Race 3: Rhino the Wrecker Toryboy BM70 – 2540M (13:25)
Our pick: #2 – Haaland @ $10.00
Ready to kick another goal is Haaland, who won at Sandown and Geelong. His most recent run at Caulfield was good enough, and a more positive ride could see his winning form back to the fore.
Cranbourne Race 4: Rosemont Stud F&M Pendant Handicap – 1400M (14:00)
Our pick: #5 – Gumdrops @ $3.00
Punters have to keep the faith with Gumdrops. She has struggled to put wins on the board recently, but Chris Waller will get the best out of her. The betting support for the favourite is a good sign.
Cranbourne Race 5: Freeway Ford Shooting Stars C3 – 1500M (14:35)
Our pick: #3 – Chest of Gold @ $5.50
It could pay to keep the faith with Chest of Gold. Yes, he has been disappointing in three recent runs when well-backed, but he has enough ability to win at Cranbourne. He is a past winner here as well.
Cranbourne Race 6: John Duff & Co The Lester BM84 – 2025M (15:10)
Our pick: #5 – Shockletz @ $2.60
Punters could get the chocolates with Shockletz. A quality winner fresh at Sandown, and she earned a pass mark with a fifth at Flemington. The tighter Cranbourne track suits her racing pattern.
Cranbourne Race 7: Unox Casa Lawson Poole BM80 – 1200M (15:45)
Our pick: #3 – Stoli Bolli @ $3.40
He has been backed many times this season. Placed punters are happy, but the two-time winner is too good to be sitting on only two wins. He gets a grand chance to post an overdue victory.
Cranbourne Race 8: Ladbrokes Cranbourne Cup – 1600M (16:25)
Our pick: #13 – Statuario @ $13.00
Coming off a second placing at Flemington and he is unbeaten in two attempts at Cranbourne. Overlooked in betting markets, and punters should take the value odds at Neds in the feature.
Cranbourne Race 9: Ladbrokes Meteorite – 1200M (17:05)
Our pick: #1 – Arkansaw Kid @ $7.00
A winner of over $1.8 million, Arkansas Kid can’t be dropped on one bad run. He took on Sepals last start, who has since placed in the Golden Eagle. It’s top-level form, so he should run close.
Cranbourne Race 10: Hertz Geoff Whiffin Sprint BM74 – 1000M (17:40)
Our pick: #5 – Demojo @ $8.50
Coming for support is Demojo, and winners are often tough to beat. He has five wins from nine attempts, and he could take provincial form to Cranbourne and emerge victorious.
