A lack of early speed leaves it open for Cyclotron to run them along. Tricky little 2yo race to open Easter Monday racing but we were quite taken with a recent jumpout win from BLIND RAISE (4), a gelding by Ace High for the Busuttin & Young stable. He came away at Cranbourne to win that heat and can make his presence felt. CYCLOTRON (1) has just found one better in both starts to date, good in Listed company at Caulfield last time. He's got experience and good early speed, he'll take plenty of catching. PRIME PATTERN (3) was good behind a talented winner in Hydrobomb here last time when running on well, albeit the winner was also back in the field. He can land closer now and take beating. HARRY MET SALLY (2) won well at Ballarat last time and is firmly in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Blind Raise gets the nod.
