The Money Trail – Caulfield, October 12

3 minute read

Racing and Sports finds the best-backed runners in early betting on Wednesday’s meeting at Caulfield.

Data Point (Race 1) is a well-supported favourite at $2.25 with good money seeing his price firm up by 70 cents since markets first opened. He has run close second at both runs this time in and looks ready to peak third up.

Plot The Course (Race 4) opened at each way odds but has firmed more than two points and is now challenging for favouritism at $2.80. He is another coming in third up after an improved second at Moonee Valley last time and looks ready for the mile now having won twice at the distance before.

Flying Artie (Race 6) opened in the black but now is well into an odds on quote at $1.75 having shortened 40 cents today and a half point overall. Resuming from a break, he was one of the country’s top juveniles of last season with placings in the Golden Slipper and Blue Diamond and always gave the impression he would be a better three year old.

Euro Angel (Race 8) is a lightly-raced but promising mare stepping up to stakes company but should be fitter for a first up second at Warwick Farm. She has yet to miss a place in five runs an punters are looking for her to add another win today, backing her in a point and a half to favouritism at $4.60.

Form Preview

Quality colt Flying Artie scored a very smart first up win. Having his first run since his third in the Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) at Rosehill in March, he settled in second place, after a quick beginning. He moved up to the leader (Dalradian) nearing the home turn, took the lead at the 200m and despite briefly racing a bit greenly, he soon drew way to score comfortably. Dalradian showed good pace to lead from his wide barrier (10), fought back really well when challenged in the straight and then held on well for a very good second. Derryn got back from his good barrier (2) to settle in seventh place on the rails. He switched deep on straightening and then kept running on well to take third. Ken’s Dream settled in third place, improved (three deep) approaching the home turn and then fought on quite well for fourth. Manolo Blahniq was well back in the 12-horse field, went widest of all at the home turn and caught the eye in running on late for fifth.
