Cranbourne Race 2

Cfc Niza Back To Black Beauty 1986 Mdn Plate

Prize Money: $37,500

Hard to split the top two here, but leaning towards EKANITE (1) who was only beaten a length in a similar race at Geelong on debut. Should improve from that performance, and that would make him incredibly tough to beat today. JAMESJOHNO (2) the toughest opponent after narrowly missing at Bendigo latest over 1300m. Was prominent throughout on that occasion and should be well in the mix from the early exchanges again here. Respect. TOPMOST (5) has been kept fresh after a couple of competitive efforts and should be kept safe. TWO WOLVES (6) is an intriguing first starter from a first stable who warrants a look.

At debut, 3rd of 10 at Geelong Mdn-Sw on May 23 over 1443m, 1.0 len behind Shimonoseki with 59.5kg at $17. Shows ability and expected to improve. Should improve today which gives him strong winning chances.

Third race start. First start second last of 9 at this track 3yo Mdn-Sw on September 19 over 1200m, 9 len behind Lofty Arch carrying 56kg at $81. Went for a break before racing behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 11 at Bendigo 3yo Mdn-Sw on May 30 over 1300m, 6 len behind Glamour Ana carrying 56kg at $21. Could be the big improver with blinkers going on for the first time.

Last start settled back and ran on when 6th of 10 at Werribee 3yo Mdn-Sw on May 16 over 1110m, 5.5 len behind Nimbustwothousand with 56kg at $17. Would prefer for the place against these.
