Cranbourne race betting preview

Cranbourne will host eight runs on Friday as the night racing season in Victoria continues for another week. The track is rated a Good 4 with the rail true from the 1600m-1000m and then out 3m for the remainder of the circuit, and we are set fair for a cracking night of racing from 6:30pm AEDT.


Best Bet: Winsum

It is not very often that Craig Williams heads down to Cranbourne for just one race at 8:30pm, but on Friday night he does just that. Having already won over this track and distance first up on November 27 last year, Winsum then ran into the handy Impecunious before being put away for a spell. He has had the ultimate gear change since the summer and should be sharper for it, as is so often the case when horses are gelded after their juvenile season. He will look to round up his rivals with one fell swoop down the outside of the track and could prove hard to hold out.

Next Best: Excelman

With a bit of luck, Willow has steered home Winsum in the opening leg of the quaddie and we can load up on the Richard Laming-trained Excelman. He has not been a punter’s pal over his career, losing six times out of seven as a favourite – including a disqualification at Sale first up in his spring campaign. With usual jockey Damien Oliver suspended, Jack Martin hops on board for the first time and from barrier four should not be too far from the speed throughout the running. When asked for an effort at the top of the straight, expect Excelman to put a couple of lengths on them quickly.

Best Value: Milliondollarbill

On the back of a close second to Prince Romany on February 18, it was a surprise to see Milliondollarbill open up at the odds he did. Since coming down to Melbourne after two failures in New South Wales to begin this campaign, the gelding has been nothing short of impressive. From barrier five, Michael Poy will look to get Milliondollarbill to settle just behind the leaders, and with a bit of luck in the straight, the Epaulette gelding should be too strong over the concluding stages.
