Cranbourne Race 7 - Freeway Ford (Bm66)
HEDJET (9) was an impressive winner last time over 1447m at Geelong, leading throughout and putting 3 lengths on his rivals. Won like a horse who is more than capable of being a force at this level. CROCODILE (6) has been about the money at each run this prep, the latest offering a second over 1600m at Ballarat. Should be ready to show his best now so he will be tough to beat. MISS CASTELVECCHIO (4) has already won a couple of races this time and performed well in better races than this, so she warrants major respect from the good draw. KASTUN STAR (3) has been in sparkling form, scoring two wins on end only to miss the frame last time over 1600m at Bendigo. Back to the scene of his victory two runs back. Has a win and three minor placings at this journey from five starts and is expected to run well. VENETIAN CHOICE (10) really bounced off the first-up run to win nicely last start and can go on with it up in trip here.

Most recently 3rd of 9 in a Bm66 at this track on September 25 over 1600m, 1.0 len behind Kastun Star with 58kg at $31. The run before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 15 in a Bm70 at Sandown-Hillside on September 2 over 1500m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Veyepee carrying 59.5kg at $51. Not far from the winner last time and is worth keeping safe.

Last start 8th of 12 in a Bm66 at Bendigo on October 4 over 1600m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Our Justify carrying 60kg at $17. The start before that won by 0.8 len in a Bm66 at this track on September 25 over 1600m defeating Finance Shogun with 58kg at $7. Not a great draw again but represents a major threat.

Most recently 2nd in a small field in a Bm70 at Mornington on September 26 over 1500m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Savitri carrying 60kg at $7. The run before that ran on from midfield and won by a neck in a Bm62 at Sale on September 13 over 1415m defeating Let It Beel carrying 60kg at $4. Recent form looks good for this.

Recent form sound. Most recently held ground to the line 2nd of 12 in a Bm66 at Ballarat on September 30 over 1600m, neck behind Yauson carrying 58.5kg at $4. Before that came from midfield; 3rd of 10 in a Bm62 at Sale on September 13 over 1415m, long-neck behind Miss Castelvecchio carrying 59kg at $3.50. Been good in three runs this time, so should be around the mark again.

At the latest run led to the turn then faded ran second last of 7 in a Bm66 at Pakenham Synthetic on October 2 over 1400m, 5 len behind Cashout carrying 59kg at $10. The run before that 2nd of 9 in a Bm66 at this track on September 25 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Kastun Star with 59kg at $10. This is no easier and he may struggle again.
