Cranbourne Race 5 - Aldebaran Park Trot
PROHIBITED GRACE (2) ran third last start at Melton over 2240m, beaten 13 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Primary contender in this comparable race. PARIS KAY (1) finished fourth last start, beaten 19 metres at Ballarat over 2200m. Expecting a very good run. LILLYS TIGER (6) finished tenth last start in a Group One over 2240m at Melton, beaten 50 metres by Mecarno. Looms as a significant threat. DOSSIER (5) finished 12th two runs ago then broke and finished a distant last over 2240m at Melton at the latest appearance. This doesn't look as hard so she is capable of turning things around.
