Cranbourne (H) Race 3

Nzb Standardbred Pace

Stake: $19,250

CAPTAIN BELLASARIO (10) hasn't raced for 14 months but flies fresh, winning five of eight attempts including a fine win at Melton to open his last prep. Readied with a recent trial and his circuit and distance statistics are strong. EXOTIC BUSHRANGER (8) was outclassed in the Inter Dominion series before a last-start fourth at Menangle. This is a big class drop and he is drawn to enjoy an economical run. LOUIE LOU I (4) won two back at Melton and came from wider for a respectable third at his most recent appearance. Go well. Last-start placegetter JUST AS WELL (3) gets every chance from a favourable draw.

Didn't do much last time out, was well back in the run when 9th (Fr6) over 2240m at Melton, at the bell was 9th-12.19 beaten 12 m by Ozzie Punta (2:41.70) in NR 70 to 79 on December 21 at $41. Before that was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr6) over 2240m at Melton beaten 40 m by Stormryder (2:40.40) in NR 70 to 79 on December 7 at $151. Would prefer to see a return to form before recommending.

Two back was well beaten into tenth after being driven well back, behind Skinnydip at Melton over 1720m in a NR 70 to 79 on November 23 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Twisted Bliss at Bendigo over 1650m in a NR 60 to 74 on December 4 at $8. Great chance to break through.

Last start solid effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr7) over 2240m at Melton was 3rd-4.3 at the bell, beaten 1.5 m by Ozzie Punta (2:41.70) in NR 70 to 79 on December 21 at $7.50. Two runs back won by 2 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at Melton (2:01.90) beating Ozzie Punta in NR 70 to 79 on December 14 at $3.40. Winning prospects.

Didn't do much last time out, was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr4) over 1720m after racing wide at Melton was 8th-21.4 at the bell, beaten 9 m by Arggghhh (2:02.20) in NR up to 90 on November 22 at $11. Before that was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr5) over 1609m at Geelong was 8th-12.73 at the bell, beaten 11 m by We Bettor Believe It (1:55.00) in NR up to 90 on November 15 at $3.40.

Resuming after a spell of 14 months. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into ninth behind Private Eye at Melton over 2240m in a NR 80 to 99 on November 11 2023 at $5. Previous preparation first-up won by a nose when quickly away, (Fr3) at Melton (2:42.70) beating Whiskey Cavalier in NR 85 to 120 on September 8 2023 at $3.30. Well-placed for a winning return.
