Cranbourne tips and results

Our price $41.00 · SP $151.00 · Thomas Doyle

Tavolta is a speculative value selection based primarily on his previous 2nd placing over this distance at Ballarat and perfect barrier 1 draw.

Our price $3.50 · SP $5.50 · Beau Mertens

Promising filly who ran a solid 2nd on debut at Mornington over this distance. Has proven ability on Good 4 surfaces with a 1:0-1-0 record. The 14-day spacing between runs is ideal, and natural improvement is expected. Barrier 11 is the main concern, but should get a midfield position with cover.

Our price $7.00 · SP $9.50 · Logan Bates

First-starter from the in-form Shea Eden stable drawn perfectly in barrier 2. Should get an economical run in transit from the good draw. Logan Bates is riding in good form and the stable has a solid record with well-prepared debutants. The expected fast tempo should suit a horse settling midfield.

Our price $5.50 · SP $8.50 · Jett Stanley

The Matthew Brown-trained gelding has been consistent with a second and third from four starts and gets the benefit of first-time blinkers which should sharpen him up. With Jett Stanley aboard, he looks a genuine winning chance.

Our price $6.00 · SP $11.00 · Jamie Mott

Billy The Boss presents as the value runner with significant improvement expected second-up and with the addition of blinkers for the first time. The John McArdle-trained gelding is well-bred being by So You Think and gets the services of top jockey Jamie Mott.

Our price $7.00 · SP $8.00 · Jye McNeil

Queen Of Tuscany brings strong Cranbourne credentials with a win and two placings from five starts at the track. While unproven at the specific distance, her overall consistency and affinity for good tracks make her a solid each-way prospect. The booking of Jye McNeil is a significant positive.

Our price $2.80 · SP $4.20 · Jamie Mott

My Roca Fella brings solid credentials with a recent 3rd at this track and distance just 14 days ago. The moderate tempo should suit his running style, and Jamie Mott knows how to get the best from him. Well-drawn in barrier 3, he looks primed to break through for a win at this venue.

Our price $3.50 · SP $5.00 · Will Gordon

The significant class drop is a major positive, and he should get an ideal run from barrier 5 with Will Gordon aboard. While untested at this distance, his racing pattern suggests he'll handle it, and the moderate tempo should allow him to settle in a forward position. The inside barriers advantage at Cranbourne also works in his favor.

Our price $4.50 · SP $11.00 · Robert Whearty

While he finished 9th last start at Cranbourne over 2580m, he's shown ability in his previous runs and comes from the powerful Ciaron Maher stable.

Our price $5.50 · SP $10.00 · Jye McNeil

King West brings strong Cranbourne credentials with multiple wins at this track. His last start runner-up finish here indicates he's in good form and handles the circuit well. The Jye McNeil booking is significant, and while he carries weight, his proven ability at this track compensates. The gelding's consistency (57% place rate) suggests he'll be competitive again.

Our price $5.50 · SP $10.00 · Koby Jennings

Lightly-raced 3YO colt with a promising profile having won one of his two starts. The addition of winkers for the first time could sharpen him up, and he draws well in barrier 3. The distance is the query.

Our price $5.00 · SP $10.00 · Rose Hammond

Experienced 7YO gelding with a strong record at this track (1-2-0 from 6 starts). Draws perfectly in barrier 1 which should be advantageous at Cranbourne. While carrying top weight, his track experience and class drop make him an appealing value proposition.
