Caulfield

Saturday, September 21, 2024Flat1m

The Group 1 Underwood Stakes. PERICLES (2) hits this with the most intent. He's been found out at the elite level in the past but was a dominant winner last time out and will be at peak fitness third up. 1800m looks a nice spot for him, he can roll forward and make use of his fitness. BUCKAROO (8) was finally given a positive steer last start and it unsurprisingly paid dividends, winning the G2 Chelmsford Stakes narrowly. If he goes forward again he can run well. PLACE DU CARROUSEL (11) is a G1 winning mare in Europe. Her Aus debut behind Via Sistina was excellent. Her aim is a Caulfield Cup but she can win this on class. FAWKNER PARK (7) is also on a Caulfield Cup path. His Q22 win before a spell was dominant and didn't rate dissimilarly to Without A Fight (very good 6th in this last year).

First-up sat on speed throughout when 3rd of 10 at this track in the G2 Lawrence Stk on August 17 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Gentleman Roy with 59kg at $2.60. Second run from a spell favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.5 len at Moonee Valley So You Think September 7 over 1500m defeating Muramasa carrying 59kg at $1.90.

    Verdict
    Multiple Group 3 winner. Useful type. At the latest run tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 10 at this track Qlty on August 31 over 2000m, 0.8 len behind Young Werther carrying 61kg at $3.50. The race before that 5th of 11 at Moonee Valley Bm100 on August 10 over 2040m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Point King carrying 60.5kg at $9. Not far away last start. Not sure he's up to this.
