Cranbourne Race 2 - Living Legends Summer Middle Distance Series - Heat 5 (Bm66)
Siding with TIME ALLOWED (4) who should be able to improve into his third up run. Two runs in Australia have been rock solid over shorter trips, beaten under a length by a handy one last time. While he didn't extend past a mile in England, he's bred to run it and nothing he's done would suggest otherwise. Tipping he has a touch more upside than GLOBAL ECLIPSE (2) who is going well. He got a deserved win two back at Pakenham and was good again last time at Caulfield in a slowly run race. He'll land in a great spot here and take catching. CONVO (9) continues to race well without winning and drops 4kg off last start with a handy claim for Logan Bates. She can be hitting the line. OLNEY (7) broke through for a narrow win last time and could go on with it, as could BROADHURST (10) who was too good for easier company at Kyneton.

Second-up. First-up after four months ran last of 9 at this track Bm66 on February 6 over 2080m, 8 len behind Olney with 60kg at $61. Previously second-up second last of 14 at Moonee Valley Bm78 on September 6 over 2040m, 8 len behind Rise To It carrying 59.5kg at $20. Can't recommend.

Recent form sound. Most recently 3rd in a small field at Caulfield Bm70 on February 7 over 2000m, 2 len behind Ambassadorial carrying 58.5kg at $8. Before that was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by 1.5 len at Pakenham Bm66 January 23 over 2000m defeating Avenues with 58kg at $3.90. Hard to beat again.

Second run back. First-up after five months raced on the pace before fading second last of 11 at Geelong Bm62 on January 26 over 1755m, 5 len behind Revolver with 61.5kg at $16. Previously second-up came from midfield and won by 1.75 len at Kyneton Mdn-Sw April 10 over 1856m defeating Dali's Picasso with 69kg at $3.90. Is a second up winner in the past but looks tested again.
