Caulfield plays host to a strong Saturday program of racing, with nine events over the course of the afternoon.
The track is currently rated a soft 6 and with some rain predicted in Melbourne on Friday, particpants will be met with a wet racing surface.
The rail is situated in the true position for the entire circuit. At this set-up, horses may edge off the fence later in the day with the wet track.
No spoils on the price here, but I'm very confident the favourite Ghaanati salutes here in this 2YO handicap over the 1100m trip.
She was very dominant winning on debut down the Flemington straight, scoring by close to 4L on the line in similar conditions to what she finds here.
After settling on speed, she was forced to make her run back towards the inside fence which is inferior going down the straight.
It didn't bother her though, darting away with the 4th fastest last 200m split of the entire day and running her last 400m split 3L quicker than class average.
She comes here second-up and it's scary to think how much she can improve off that debut run, now with race fitness and experience on her side.
She's drawn perfectly from barrier three to land up on speed again, which is a big positive when the rail is true here at Caulfield.
D Oliver is off, but we lose absolutely nothing with B Prebble jumping on and I'm confident the filly wins again.
This very smart Headwater gelding for the Price and Kent Jnr team is looking for three on the bounce, and I'm very keen to see him at city level.
His first up Mornington win was exceptional, not only visually but also on the clock.
He jumped and led them up at a very quick tempo, going 3.5L quicker to the 600m than the average for this grade.
That didn't stop him though, he straightened up and extended again, running a meeting fastest last 400/200m under only hands and heels riding.
Breaking the clock under almost no pressure, he stamped himself as a very smart conveyance and then backed it up with a Pakenham Synthetic win last start.
It looked as though he wasn't too comfortable on that surface, so I expect him to improve again here back on to the turf and third up sticking to 1000m is ideal.
The stable are airbourne with their 3YO crop at the moment, and I've got a feeling he is one of their leading runners.
54kg is a huge tick, and you can expect him to push forward under Jye McNeil from barrier three. All things equal, I suggest he wins this and wins well.
