Heavy 8 at Caulfield and the sky’s still grey, which means the wet form is where you start the day. We’ve gone through every race on Bel Esprit Stakes Day and tipped the lot, plenty going on across nine.

Race 3
1400m · Club Hcp · 9 runners

#10 Undisputable $12

Barrier 4 · Leader · Soft pace

Really liked that win last start at Moe after the freshening, and I see no reason why he can’t measure up here. Will get all the favours on the map and really like Mertens in the saddle, and at $11, we don’t need to be perfect. Each-way all day.

Race 7Best Bet
1600m · Hcp (Bm78) · 7 runners

#8 Cabriole $4.20

Barrier 10 · on-pace · Soft pace

He looks a proper horse who’s flying this prep, with two wins from two runs and both were done with a bit in hand. The jumpout since was the bit that caught the eye. He moved like a horse still on the way up. From the map, he should roll forward, control the race, and make them chase. #5 Cannyworth is also worth a nibble at a price.

Race 8
1100m · Stakes (L) · 12 runners

#14 Bazaball Rewarded $6.00

Barrier 4 · Leader · Hot pace

The map is right. Gate 4, natural speed, and Bustling has to cross from gate 8 on heavy ground. That part I like. The knock is the heavy-track profile. Not enough there to make this a full send. Good Place bet

Race 9
1200m · Hcp (Bm84) · 10 runners

#7 Elouyou $5.50

Barrier 5 · Off Pace · Hot pace

Tongue tie back on, ear muffs on, and Harry Coffey gets the ride from gate 5. Elouyou should sit off a hot tempo and get his chance late. Perspiration has to do a similar job from gate 6 at $4.20. Same trip. Bigger quote. Gear change looks positive.
