Cranbourne Race 5 - Remembering Brian Markovic Pace

TOPHUT JOHNY (2) finished third last start, beaten 5.5 metres at Shepparton over 1690m. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running a big race. ROCKLEIGHS LEGACY (3) was in the money at Kilmore two runs ago before finishing eighth at her latest appearance over 2200m at Ballarat, beaten 24 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Has the ability to find the winners' list. PRECIOUS BELLE NZ (6) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 7 metres at Melton over 1720m. BLAZIN HEAVEN NZ (1) is next best and gets every chance from a favourable draw.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Tex Goes Bang at this track over 2080m on July 19 at $6. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing third behind Our Mystery Bet at Shepparton over 1690m on July 28 at $3.70. Heading the right way and is a leading player.

Last start 9th (Fr2) over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 21 m by Mason Jolie (2:39.20) on July 22 at $61. Two runs back tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.5 m when quickly away, (Fr3) at Echuca (2:42.90) beating Metro Memory in on July 7 at $7 at the bell was 3rd-4. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
