Kilmore Race 2 - Jack Knight Memorial Cranbourne 7000 Pace (1St Heat)
LAVADA GOLD (1) was a winner over a similar distance last month at Geelong and could be close to another success after back-to-back placings, last time drawing wider and working when runner-up at Cobram. Should enjoy better favours from this barrier. YANKEE MOJOH (3) looks close to a win having come from wider barriers to finish runner-up in her last two outings, last time edged out by a nose at Ballarat. The good draw gives her the chance to break through. ISOLATION (8) is a newcomer to the Tomkinson yard from Tasmania. Hasn't raced for three months but has been readied with a series of trials. Draws for a trail and could measure up. CARUSO STAR (7) may need a touch of luck from a wide draw but is racing well having clocked in second last time at Cranbourne and winning there three back. BLACKMIRRA (10) draws on the second line but is back in form having toughed out a narrow win at this venue and distance last week.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Playnice at Maryborough over 1690m in a NR 40 to 45 on April 14 at $17. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Hand Writer at Cobram over 1670m in a NR 39 to 44 on April 25 at $3.30. Has winning claims.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Neon Tiger at Ballarat over 2200m in a NR 45 to 49 on April 3 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Over The Line at Maryborough over 2190m in a 0-2 WINS on April 14 at $3.90. Great chance to salute from a favourable draw.
