The Caulfield Cup

[_ed_]

Predictably, Silent Achiever for me. She's been sneakily getting better with each race this prep, and the normally reserved Roger James sounds confident:

Go, girl!

Go, girl!

Roger James had a nice winner this week at Caulfield, good luck to him.

So nice to see you here, Moodwalker.

R4 Jacob Pk Norman Robinson S. - No one beats Polanski.

R5. Carlton Draught Alinghi Stakes - Octavia

R6. Sportingbet Moonga Stakes - I have learned to sit out when I can't be objective so am rooting for Mic Mac, Pinwheel and Second Effort and leaving it at that.

R7 The Sprint - Spirit of Boom (Griffon underneath)

R8. David Jones Cup - I'm lost. I think I will sit this out as I don't feel confident in any decision I make here. I do like Honorius but then get all frazzled with Hvasstan, Garud, Spurtonic and HG Man.... Better for me to walk away and watch a good race. Would love to know who you all like here though!

R9 - Yellowglen Tristarc Stakes and wow this is a great field. Steps in Time / Xanadu / Peron, Red Tracer, Bennetta and Flying Snitzel

R10 Caulfield Cup - Fawkner / Hawkspur, Silent Achiever / Jet Away, Forgotten Voice, Moriarty, Royal Descent, Dandino

Good luck, everyone!

Better she's too far outside than in... I HAVE to use the forgotten girl, Dear Demi, in the 3rd spot so am switching out both Forgotten Voice (even with my favorite jockey up) and Moriarty.

That's my good boy.

I will take a shot with Kelinni: decent record at the 2400 but wins on dead ground, and is $31 on the morning line.

Enjoy the race.

Thanks, Cardus. You too.

Good luck.
