Cranbourne Race 1 - Mark Gurry & Associates Pace
ALOT LIKE JEANNIE (4) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks after closing off last campaign in good form, scoring at her last appearance over 2190m at Shepparton. Sure to prove hard to beat on her return. CYCLONE JENNI (2) had been about the mark in recent runs before the latest appearance when she finished 11 metres away in third over 2080m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Facing a tougher assignment but she is good enough to cope. JUSTLIKEDAVE (7) disappointed last time when tenth over 2200m at Ballarat. Can atone. BELLA LOUISE (5) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 2080m.

Resumes. At the latest first-up run 9th (Fr4) over 2200m after showing early pace at Ballarat beaten 30 m by The Gang (2:45.80) in 4yo+ on October 2 at $126. Might need this run and others rate better.

First up. At the last run she posted a big 20 m win as favourite (Fr5) at Shepparton (2:40.90) beating Fenway Park in on May 19 at $1.60 at the bell was leading 9.8. Finds a nice race to launch the campaign.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Mikispur at this track over 2080m on July 5 at $4.33. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Inexorable at this track over 2080m on July 19 at $11. A big run would not surprise.

Last start 10th (Sr2) over 2200m at Ballarat, beaten 65 m by My Beautiful Life (2:42.40) on June 25 at $3.90. At his previous start 9th (Sr3) over 2080m at this track was 7th-12.6 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Frosty Drop (2:33.90) on June 14 at $7.50. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Among the chances on his best form.
