Racing Caulfield Cup Day 2024

[Peter Doherty]

 

[Hawksboy72]

Buckaroo - will be interesting to see if they have a crack at the MC. He ran a cracking race.

I'd back him up into the CP next week.

[The GOAT]

The Duke! Love your work Jugada. Better than any tipster going around.

 

[qarocks]

a few favs didn't have any juice left at the end when the sprint was on, tough!

Widest barrier to win today was 8 at caulfield.

Widest barrier to win today was 8 at caulfield.

And besides the first and last race, there wasn’t a lot of winners coming from a long way back

 

[FFB1]

Valiant King was a very good run.

Two mile but?

 

[BuddysBiggestFan]

Joliestar should have won that if not for a butcher job from Jmac.

 

[Lunchtime]

Two mile but?

That's the query isn't it. He'll have to go to a new "pain" (so to speak) to run the 3200m. He just looks too brilliant for 3200m, but Waller will have a go I think.

Top 6 chance?

 

[Lunchtime]

Duke De Sessa

Weight: 52kg
Barrier: barrier 6
2400m: 4 starts: 2-0-1
2400m Caulfield: 2 starts: 0-0-1
Soft track: 8 starts: 2-0-3
Heavy track: 3 starts: 0-0-1
Last start: 4th - G1 Turnbull Stakes
Class: ️???

I think Duke De Sessa can run top 5. A few dollars each way I think.

Good luck everyone.

Jugada we were all over the Duke

3200 would be a massive query for buckeroo but you just never know...

 

[Lunchtime]

3200 would be a massive query for buckeroo but you just never know...

He has 54.5kg in the Melbourne Cup. For a horse with a 3200m query...you wouldn't want anymore weight.

 

[pendlebury_10]

Huge run by Buckaroo and great to see the Duke salute

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

3200 would be a massive query for buckeroo but you just never know...

He'll be absolutely fine

 

[Hawksboy72]

Will Buckaroo be this year's Hartnell or Criterion.
Best WFA horse in the race and run a credible top 3 or 5 finish.

More likely this years VE or Gold Trip off today. If they walk in the Cup he will have too much speed for the Euros coming over and nothing out of today is beating him

 

[2121]

Jesus this is ****ing ordinary by hippo hope he cops a wack. Shouldn't be riding to ruin another horses chances.

 

[juice t]

Nice old day to be Ciaron Maher

Of course you should be abke to ride to make things tougher for your opposition. Happens all the time. Don't think you should have that right taken away just because you are on a 50-1 chance rather than a 3-1 chance

 

[Jamz]

SS was absolutely woeful, he was under the bat a very long way out.

You'd be hoping it's too bad to be true if you're keen on the fav in the Melbourne Cup.

I don't know if that's fair commentary, they were getting stuck into the jocks last time when she was able to lead by 30L down the back. If she did that today, the result would have been very similar. This was always going to be the ball game if you took the odds about Pride of Jenni, is anything prepared to take her on?

It will be the same next week, when she most likely lines up again.

Got no issues with taking her on but when you ride it to stay 15 wide after the jump it's suss as anything. At the end of the day you have the ride your mount to give it the best chance at running its best I don't think he's done that.

 

[Waca Jr]

Tell ya what channel 7s coverage of the racing is horrendous these days.

What do you expect with that dumb campaigner Richo on it. Clueless

Spot on. She'll bounce through that though and win next Saturday.

They came down to the rails before the bend, not like they ran her off the course.

Jockeys kick up to hold favourites in or don't go early to let them out of pockets all the time which isn't riding their own mount to get around in the fastest time but you are still riding tactically to try to beat other horses.

Might have been thw wrong decision tactically but 100% should be able to try
