Cranbourne Race 3 - Hip Pocket Workwear & Safety Mornington Pace
IMA TERMINATOR (7) produced a solid effort last time out when he scored by 1.1 metres over 1690m at Kilmore. Must overcome a very wide draw. His recent effort is good enough to take out a race like this. IN AN IDEAL WORLD (2) is in good form at present. Finished third at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten a head. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run, and he has the ability to test this field. PERUN NZ (9) can secure a cosy run early and is in the mix following a respectable second at his first run back over 1690m at Kilmore. PLAINS IN HEAVEN (8) showed pleasing improvement last time out when runner-up over 1650m at Bendigo.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Cigano at Melton over 1720m in a 3yo No NR CG on April 4 at $101. Then a handy effort when a close third after a quick start, behind Miss Ari at this track over 1609m in a NR 50 to 54 on April 18 at $3.30. Winning prospects.

4th (Fr5) over 1690m after showing early speed and racing wide at Kilmore, at the bell was 5th-6.3m 2WWC beaten 3.5 m by Ima Terminator (2:00.40) in NR 56 to 62 on April 24 at $19. Before that 5th (Fr3) over 1720m at Melton beaten 17 m by Golden Tribe (2:01.80) in NR 60 to 69 on April 12 at $51. This looks a far sterner task.

Going well. Last start won from midfield and won by 1.1 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at Kilmore (2:00.40) beating Perun in NR 56 to 62 on April 24 at $1.55 at the bell was 2nd-1.9m 2WNC. Fitter for two runs in and looks tough to beat again.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Golden Tribe at Melton over 1720m in a NR 60 to 69 on April 12 at $61. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.2 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Harryhoo at Bendigo over 1650m in a NR 65 or better on April 16 at $11. Sure to be thereabouts.
