Group l racing returns to Melbourne this Saturday where it is Memsie Stakes Day at Caulfield. The weather is fine, the track is soft (5) and the rail is in the true position for the entire circuit.
Best bet multi
Race 5, No 1 - Masked Crusader $1.80- WIN
Great to see Masked Crusader back at the races.
An Everest path kicks off here for this Team Hawkes trained galloper, he mixed it with the big boys in the Autumn and did measure up, winning the William Reid before a brilliant second in the TJ Smith. He then went to the All Aged and was flat, spelled soon after.
1100m is short of his best, but he has class.
Race 6, No.1 - Probabeel $2.20- WIN
Probabeel has class and that will carry her a long way here.
The Jamie Richards trained mare resumes against her own age/sex after originally being targetted towards the Group 1 Memsie, proven first-up winning two from five when fresh and won at Caulfield last go.
She's in top order and will take a lot of beating.
Multi odds: $4.00
Next best
Race 4, No.1 - Artorius $3.20
The McNeil Stakes is the first step for some on the Caulfield Guineas path and the Guineas-bound Artorius looks hard to beat under the weight conditions of the race.
He carries the 59.5kg top weight but the Blue Diamond winner only gives a maximum of 3kg to his opposition.
He oozes class and will take some beating.
