He was outstayed by Via late there. His only go at the trip he was basically pulled up just after the line. And he's by Fastnet Rock

For mine Buckaroo had VS on toast at the 200 and she came back underneath him which isn't ideal.
For all the guesswork of whether he looks like he will run it or not though I'm putting the most stock in the one previous run where we have actually seem him attempt it and he quite clearly did not stay 2400. Whether he is going better or not now is irrelevant because he was going OK then and clearly regressed when stepping up to 2400 so can only assume he will regress from his level this prep too

I reckon the yard watchers will be laying him at the trip, not that I am one.

Anyway, he's probably not a bad price to find out. 4/1 to see whether he can run it is reasonable considering if he does he is prob an evens shot.

Pre gelding form is irrelevent i would have thought.
He's a different horse his last three starts and is improving with each run.
FWIW he was beaten less then two lengths in the Tancred. Not running the distance is a stretch.

Nah he didn't run the trip. Tancred was absolute garbage going in and that was before Post Impresssionist went backwards. Did no work out the back, started to run on and then the likes of Athabascan and Ashrun came back under him to beat him home

Probably Zardozi still at around 8. Most of the value gone with the ones I like though. Not a lot could even put in the tail end of exotics. Maybe at a stretch Coco Sun getting out to 50s
Kingsley B all over Buckaroo. Diff thread but the Wolfden gang were stripped clean in the 2022 MC at COTC, and had 6 or 7 going last year including WOF resulting in a loss of just on $7k (bout $150k outlay). If Kingsley and co all over Buckaroo look elsewhere 
I’m cheering SS, unfortunately took the cups double as well and looks like it’ll pull up stumps after Saturday.

Assuming we’re racing on a soft+ Z has to be a hope, Atzeni the query first time at the Heath - gets a look in the second.

Lets see how much rain the track gets tomorrow. I'm guessing a biased leaders track

Rain has already arrived in Melbourne, just a matter of how much hits Caulfield.
The track manager was quoted as saying they would typically put 20mm on it after Wednesday’s meet anyway, so don’t see it playing too differently to normal. Potentially Good 4 - Soft 5?
No way they will allow a rails bias again, horses likely come off the fence and get to the middle of the track.

They pretty much said worse case scenario with the rain will be a soft6. Hasn't been watered.

It’s currently belting down rain in Dandenong where I’m working.
Saturday Saturday (easier that way) and Warp Speed both passed fit to run.
I’d be factoring in a soft track when doing the form - I reckon 20-30mm today. Consistent rain now for three hours in Melbourne.
I'm predicting a 5-6
Yep, hasn't that joint turned to shit since they cosied up in bed with Ladbrokes and Kremlin.com. Their original stuff 2 or 3 years ago was real good, but I don't think the bloke has actually given a decent winning tip since Queman won the Oakleigh Plate this year. Their manikato night live stream was champagne comedyKingsley B all over Buckaroo.

Won’t help MC chances, think was 30 or thereabouts?
Apparently Deny Knowledge out too
