Cranbourne Race 5 - Core Protective Group (Bm62)
VIASAIN (3) is racing consistently and finds a nice race here. He's been kept fresh for this having chased home subsequent stakes winner Regeneration at Caulfield Heath when last seen. The second placing prior to a smart one in Trapper John also reads very well and he looks the one to beat off that sort of form. WOLF TWENTY ONE (2) resumes. He mixed his form last time in but put up a couple of good performances, respecting while fresh. FIRERATED (5) also resumes, for his second campaign having shown ability in three runs last time in. He was well backed in a Class 1 before a break and has plenty of upside. CORE CONCEPT (1) was okay here fresh over 955m. This looks a touch easier and he can get a bit more time to find his feet here. AFFIRMATIVE LAD (8) next best.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 30 day let-up. Most recently 4th of 7 at Caulfield Heath Bm70 on March 18 over 1000m, 2 len behind Regeneration carrying 57.5kg at $12. The start before that rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 7 at Pakenham Bm66 on February 19 over 1000m, 0.5 len behind Trapper John with 59.5kg at $9. Should take catching this level.

Comes off a 36 day let-up. Last start failed to make an impression; ran last of 8 at Pakenham Bm62 on March 12 over 1000m, 8 len behind Extragalactic carrying 56.5kg at $14. Before that held ground to the line 2nd of 9 at Pakenham Bm62 on February 26 over 1000m, 0.5 len behind Tiz Worthy carrying 56.5kg at $41. Rough chance from a good draw.
