David Gately Horse Racing Tips for Caulfield 10/5/25

Bet of the Day

Caulfield R9 #10 – Pivot City

Returned brilliantly as a gelding charging up the straight before running a huge race against the pattern at Moonee Valley.

Looked every bit the winner at Bendigo before a touch of bad luck saw him go down narrowly — that form has since been franked by the runner-up winning last week.

Rated: Clear top pick

Odds: $3.70

Best Value Bet

Caulfield R5 #6 – Extreme Virtue

Unbeaten in three runs last prep and resumes here off a strong jumpout where she settled back and charged late.

Beat Mornington Pier fresh last time in, and that horse has since placed behind stakes-grade company.

With natural improvement, she looks seriously over the odds.

Rated: Very nice play at double figures

Value: $10 looks generous
