Cranbourne Race 4 - Decron Cranbourne Gold Cup 31 Jan Trotters Free For All

JILLIBY BALLERINI (4) has had seven weeks off since a NZ raid, highlighted by a fourth in the Dominion Trot at Addington. She was flying prior to that trip and has been kept up to the mark with a trial win. If she shows up at her best she'll be hard to stop. ROCKINWITHATTITUDE (5) is a multiple Group 1 winning mare who hasn't raced for 15 months but closed off last campaign in good form, scoring at her last appearance at Melton. Readied with a series of trials and is proven fresh. Likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. IMPERIAL MONARCH NZ (8) resumes and looks ready to run very well on the back of three trials. Respect any positive market moves. FOUROUTOFFIVE (6) is the best of the rest after finishing fifth over 1720m at Melton last time out.

Before that 6th (FT Fr5) over 2240m at Melton, at the bell was 3rd-5.23 beaten 18 m by Im Bobby (2:47.00) in No NR on December 20 at $151. Needs to do more.
