Caulfield Cup Day
 

First look it appears to be a hard day. Always seems to be Caulfield Cup Day, can't remember the last time I was in front on this day.

I like Maldivian in the Cup, but who doesn't. Think Doro Valley is a danger.

The other that stood out is Vormista. Doubt a price though.

Post your thoughts.

i agree, douro valley looks the danger, and has firmed $1 in betting, $12 into $11. Vormista the obvious bet of the day

Vormista @ $2.20 looks like a great double up for my tab account :)
By god it needs it lol

$2.20 is pretty good..wide barrier of no concern unless its a dominant leaders biased track :(...I reckon you'll be lucky to get $1.90 fixed b4 the jump

I suggest you watch the first few races and see how the track is playing. If there is leader bias which there quite often is on CC day then it doesn't look such a good bet. I think you may get around that mark on track. Have to wait and see.

Vormista is a class above and kicked nearest rival Guild's head in last time they met.
There is money in the place bet in this race tho with a little study.

Just heard Colin Little says Blutigeroo is off it's feed and hasn't pulled up well and doubtful to run in the Caulfield Cup.

I'm disappointed Princess Coup drew so wide, I worry about Maldivian 's chances from Barrier one, 66 years of history and the laws of probability against him now, very very tough. If he does it then he is a superstar!
Only a couple of contenders remain unharmed from that draw.
Purple Moon got a suitable positon for style as did Maybe Better and Mandela.
Duoro Valley seems the longshot of choice with punters convincing themselves that because it has beaten Maldivian is a strong smokey.
It beat Maldivian by a nosehair, and at the same distance Maldivian beat it by a length.
Maldivian has improved greatly since then and Kavanaugh says there is improvement yet in him. Duoro Valley would have to make the same claims to be a rival here and that whilst not impossible is very unlikely.
It is a high pressure race so it could get lucky and do it.

Rumours of Craig Williams concussion seem confirmed by S Dye in from HK to ride D.Hayes's mounts that Williams was booked to pilot.

I thought williams suspended?

Kerr Caulfield track manager says 16 mills water to be dumped on track tomorrow, targeting a dead track. 4 horses pulled up sore after runs this week. Strong dry winds yesterday baked it.

Havent time for details...

I dont mind Typoon Zed tomorrow,,at the 5.50 hes alittle shorter than i expected..might wait till tomorrow

I think Villian is a little short. You need to be wary of the form from Flemington that day.
