Friday night racing comes from Cranbourne on the outer eastern edge of Melbourne. With perfect weather around the track will be rated good.
Best Bet
Runaway Statement is lining up for her third career run off the back of two excellent performances. She ran well on debut in what has turned out to be a hot form race then got too far back last time at Geelong. From barrier two she should be able to sit much closer in the run here and that can make all the difference.
Recommended Price: $3.30
Confidence Level: 4/5
More Racing Tips
Itza Motza gets his chance to break through. The gelding has been a model of consistency without winning a race and the extra trip here looks right up his alley. Winkers going on should help sharpen him up and from barrier four Dan Stackhouse will give him every chance.

Keevs isn’t the most consistent customer but he does have a real affinity for this track, with two wins and a second placing from three runs here. Most of these are selective with their effort so if he brings his best he is well capable of winning and we are getting a big price.

Masterful was beaten as a short priced favourite last time at Caulfield, but that owed plenty to the rail being out a long way and the significant on pace bias that resulted. Getting out to 1400m looks ideal and his prior form was obviously excellent for a race like this.
