BEST BET
JIMMYSSTAR (R8 No.1)
Jimmysstar was a dominant winner in the Russell Balding Stakes after finishing third in The Everest narrowly ahead of Angle Capital (sixth). He has won three from eight at the 1400m including the Group 1 All Aged Stakes in April, and he loves Caulfield with four wins from five starts.
NEXT BEST
VESTAS (R6 No.8)
Vestas made an eye-catching return in the Group 3 Northwood Plume Stakes at Caulfield before getting too far back at The Valley in the Group 2 McEwen Stakes. She drops back to a Group 3 and can settle closer from barrier six third-up.
VALUE BET
IKASARA (R1 No.3)
The resuming Ikasara has had only one start this year, finishing well behind Autumn Glow in March. He raced against some decent three-year-olds during the spring last year and this BM74 looks a good starting point.
LAY OF THE DAY
BEAST MODE (R4 No.6)
Beast Mode could be a little vulnerable at the end of 1100m, a distance he has won just once in eight attempts.
THE JOCKEY
CRAIG WILLIAMS
SPARKLING (R1 No.4 – $16), ALMAIRAC (R2 No.9 – $14), NEARING LIBERTY (R3 No.7 – $4.60), BEAST MODE (R4 No.6 – $2.90), RUMBLED AGAIN (R5 No.1 – $34), AVIATRESS (R6 No.2 – $5.50), SULEK (R7 No.8 – $15), INKARUNA (R9 No.2 – $5), SPIONE (R10 No.13 – $3.90).
