Winning streak to continue despite draw

RAMPAGING pacer Cash N Flow is expected to continue his stellar form despite another tough draw at Club Menangle on Saturday night.

Winner of his last five starts for trainer Craig Cross, Cash N Flow has not only scored from barriers eight, nine and 10, he has done so in impressive fashion.

Along with a pair of 1:50.1 victories, the son of Mach Three has stopped the clock in 1:49.6, 1:49.7 and 1:49.8.

“He’s a great miler,” Cross said. “He’s the perfect free-for-aller, especially over the sprint.

“He’s running those times on cold nights and doing it easily.”

As for his pending assignment, Cash N Flow will once again begin from gate 10 over 1609 metres.

Despite the gelding’s starting position Cross remains positive Cash N Flow can stretch his winning sequence.

“It’d be nice if he drew close to the inside fence instead of the outside one every now and then,” Cross said.

“That said, he’s been too good from the wide draws and I can’t see any reason why that will change on the weekend.

“He’s still going to have to be at the top of his game, but that’s exactly where he is at.”

Cross also has Motu Gatecrasher, Replaced Eye and Pocket Of Terror in the field, with the latter considered Cash N Flow’s biggest threat.

Also in strong form, including a win at the world class venue a fortnight ago, Pocket Of Terror has drawn barrier nine.

Luke McCarthy is set to drive Cash N Flow, with his brother Todd to take the reins behind Pocket Of Terror.

“Pocket Of Terror is going well as are the other two, but they’ll be hard pressed to break 1:50 which is most likely what will be needed to beat Cash N Flow,” Cross said,
