Cranbourne Race 4 - Mcmahon's Dairy Mdn Plate
ROCK ABOUT (3) has the right profile after placings at both runs this campaign, with the Seymour third carrying extra merit because he was wide without cover and still finished 1.5L of the winner. The rise to 1400m suits, though he is likely to drift back from the draw and be charging late. SEINFELD (5) resumes for the Douglas camp and strips fitter for two Mornington jump-outs. Made showed positive signs in his debut prep, so if he's made natural progression, he's sure to be competitive. SILVER SNOW (6) is a seasoned maiden, yet his Yarra Valley second was sound and warrants safe keeping for exotic players. LA VELOCITA (10) has been hard to fault for consistency, with repeated placings, solid track form and a checked run last start, although 1400m is new territory for her.

Was slow to begin and never a winning factor when seventh in a Wodonga Mdn last start, beaten just over six lengths after settling rearward. The start prior was no better at this track, finishing last at big odds and making little impression. Has to lift sharply.

Makes his debut after a series of Cranbourne trials, the latest coming last month, so there is at least a base of education before race day. He was a $150,000 yearling purchase and draws barrier 1 for a stable with Group 1 credentials. Market watch, with place claims on profile.

Has placed at both runs this campaign and the latest Seymour third had merit, beaten a length and a half after racing wide without cover throughout in soft ground. He had earlier run second on the Pakenham Synthetic after missing the start, so the form has substance. The 1400m asks something, but he looks the main winning chance.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing second last in a Bendigo Mdn, beaten six and a half lengths, when he could not muster a challenge. His previous fifth at Werribee was more competitive, but he remains unplaced from five starts and has no placing from four attempts around 1400m. Two trials, including a latest third at Mornington, help fitness, yet he still has to find more under race pressure. Not at this stage.

Returns from a lengthy spell with two trials since last racing, and his last campaign form is strong enough for this maiden. He was runner-up at Seymour over 1600m, beaten just under a length, then third at this track when favourite after racing wide outside the leader and losing a plate. Strong winning case if ready fresh.

Comes off a sound Yarra Valley second, beaten just over a length after travelling well and working home evenly over 1009m on soft ground. He had made ground without threatening at this track the start prior, and first-time blinkers and visor now go on. The 1400m is the query, but he is fit and right in this.

Lifted back into calculations with a Mornington Mdn third last start, beaten just over a length after travelling well behind the leaders and closing into the placing. That came after a plain Geelong run over 1765m when unwanted in betting and beaten over 13 lengths. The latest is the run to trust, and his 1400m record gives him enough grounding to be a solid place hope. Keeping safe in the placings.

Returns from a lengthy spell after being well beaten on debut at Wangaratta, where he began slowly, settled rearward and faded late on heavy ground. A trial win at Flemington last week is a positive sign and Patrick Moloney has a strong track profile, but race-day evidence remains thin. Trial win last week gives some hope, but he has plenty to prove.

Returns from a lengthy spell after two unplaced runs to begin her career, the latest at this track when second last at long odds after being forced wide and meeting interference in the straight. That gives the run some excuse, and she has had two trials since, but the Bendigo debut was also plain. Others read better.

Has put together a string of placings and was again honest when third at Yarra Valley, beaten two and a half lengths after settling well back and being checked passing the 300m. She had also placed in a Mdn at this track two back after racing wide. First go at 1400m is the test, but she has a solid place profile.

Was fourth in a Bairnsdale Mdn last start, beaten just over seven lengths after beginning awkwardly and laying in through the home straight. Her debut fifth at Echuca was more encouraging, beaten a length and a half after making solid inroads from the back. Last start was too plain to mark her higher.
