Cranbourne Race 3 - Cool Ridge (Bm66)
CURSE IT (2) goes on top. He stepped up to this trip at Caulfield Heath last time and put up a good figure when coming right away to score by 1.5 lengths after settling back in the field. This doesn't look any harder and he can go on with it. HUMZA BEY (4) made his Australian debut at Sale and was heavily supported into $1.65, battling away for third in the small field off a wide run. He can improve quickly off that. SUMO SANDY (5) is going well, just finding one better last time here having won two on the bounce prior. He'll bounce out and take catching. RAPID CHEVAL (8) resumes having gone to the paddock a winner at Gold Coast. She can measure up. EYE FOR AN EYE (3) is off a short break here and can figure back to a mile.
