Racing Caulfield Cup Day 2022

Maher has declared him as his best for the weekend. Enjoy your last few weeks in the game.

Must be a bleak week for the CMR team then.

KO might not have the class...or win - but you can see Clark taking off a mile out, stringing them out, having a few off the bit and making it a proper bog test - will find a few out along the way at least

That's definitely the hope

If trainers were punters they would all be broke long ago

The horse is no good on a wet track.

1000-1 to win a cox plate

might as well stay in the C.C and have a try.

Last year was the closest we will see to the rarity of a Cups double. Smallest chance Gold Trip but tbh current form looks a level below what Deauville Legend will bring.

Mer De Glace was a moral beaten in 2019, as we know the race was run at a farcical tempo (Vow and Declare says hi). We also copped torrential rain in the morning which resulted in big track downgrades (it rated as a Soft 6 but plenty of jocks had it worse than this).

It still hurts to this day as I had the Jap triple going for plenty.

Same - think it was like 2000/1

Nah horse is legless on a wet track. More chance of picking up cheque in a field of 8 or 9 at the CP

If I'm being honest Paris I think it would have only been because you tipped me into it

Bring back the raiders

 

[iluvparis]

Duffs top 4

Duffs top 4 Montefelia , No Comp , Alegron, Benaud

Assume next best Duais, Knights Order and keen to throw in Durston if it gets a run

Anyone in or around Caulfield with a weather update? Thought nonconformist was a great bet but the heavy 10 worries me. Better field last year and beat all bar incentivise comfortably after sitting wide.

Are we thinking a bottomless heavy 10, or any chance of a 9 come the race? Huge difference between the 2 imo

Id be penning Nonny even its anything worse than a soft 7 but thats just my opinion. Doesnt seem like the same horse this prep. Worth throwing into multiples tho.

Don't say you weren't told so.

SR ticks every single box leading in to the CC and will get the job done.

not raining at the moment, by backyard is significantly less drowned than it was yesterday around 6pm. still have had a lot of rain over the last 24-36 hours so no doubt it will at absolute best be in the 7-8 range. Not ideal drying conditions, only 17 degrees and cloudy. not much wind.

Last CC to have Toowoomba maiden form?

Happy to suggest SR is no Incentivise

This prep has been all about building towards the CC, they haven’t cared about anything else and it’s been racing the A graders, who knows what it’s form would look like if it had been in races like the Turnbull, naturalism, metrop etc. Last CC was a soft 7 from memory? But yes like you said- that’s just my opinion- a field & weather like this and you probably won’t find too many people with the same predictions

Dont buy the building towards GF talk. Just a line people trot out for horses who are running putrid at the moment. Same thing going on with Duais with people making excuses because its only aimed at the Cups. Horses running like shit rarely turn it around for a specific day

Could win. What the trainer thinks doesnt move the needle though

Your right horses running like s**t do struggle to turn it around. But your mad if you think running 2.5 lengths behind anamoe over 2000m is running like s**t.
