IRT CRANBOURNE 10000 PACE (1ST HEAT) 2240m Track: GOOD |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
HARLEY LANE (1) comes through the Nutrien series where she placed in a heat before a midfield finish from a tough draw in the final. Went into that series off a Cranbourne win and has the gate speed to take advantage of the ace draw. PICK UP ELVIS (5) looks promising having scored easily when resuming at Ballarat. That was just his second start so has plenty of upside. ATA RANGI (7) draws wide but is racing well with a string of top-three finishes including a win here two back. GALAXY LASS (10) will be fitter for the last outing and had been solid behind some subsequent Group winners prior.
