Our Caulfield Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
The main race is the $5 million Caulfield Cup. Read our 2020 Caulfield Cup Preview.
Windstorm (Caulfield Race 8 No. 9)
This four-year-old gelding has won two in a row at this track and distance and is looking for a hat-trick. He ran on strongly out wide to edge clear over the last 50m for a 0.5 length win in a 1400m handicap on a soft track here on 26 September, then won the Listed Weekend Hussler Stakes by 0.75 lengths on 10 October. Carries the same weight here and should win again.

Each Way
Pensato (Caulfield Race 5 No. 6):
This Lonhro filly has had five starts for a win and 2 places. She joined the lead at the 200m and fought hard to only go down late for 0.2, 0.2 length 3rd over 1300m at Geelong, then took over at the 350m and kicked clear for a 1.25 length win over 1800m in the Oaks Trial at Flemington on 23 September. She has drawn the rails and looks a great each-way bet.

Best Lay
Let’s Karaka Deal (Caulfield Race 4 No. 10):
This Dundeel colt is the early favourite in the Group 3 Caulfield Classic over 2000m. At his second start he won a Swan Hill maiden plate over 1600m by 1.5 lengths on 24 August, then was held up from the 400m and went to the line untested when 3.45 lengths 11th in the Derby Trial over 1800m at Flemington on 23 September. It is a wide open race and he doesn’t represent value.

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Saturday 20th April 2024
Key Comments The rail is in 3 metres and the track is heavy. Just 6 races on the small card and the best bet is in the first. Best Bet Grand Horizon (Taree Race 1 No. 3) Gets barrier 1 and this 4yo Mare boasts 2 placings on the track and looks nicely placed against this bunch. Set to peak and looks primed to get another win and should do no work from the draw. Hard to beat. Check odds on SmartB

Key Comments The rail is in 4 metres from the 1000-380m mark and true for the remainder. Racing on a soft 5 track. The best bet is early on in the day. Best Bet Greaves (Canberra Race 2 No. 1) Capable of a big finish when on song. The map here looks good from barrier 4 and Owen has options. This race suits and last start rates well enough to take this out. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet comes up in the first race at a short price and is a good multi banker. Best Bet Snippety Star (Orange Race 1 No. 10) All runs to date have been solid and Snippety Star won't get a better chance to win than this. Latham does the riding and the depth here is thin. This race suits and is a good multi banker for the weekend. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker

Key Comments The rail is out from 7 metres from the 1000m post and true for the remainder. The feature races include the J B Carr Stakes (race 3), Frank Packer Plate (race 4), Hall Mark Stakes (race 5), Jra Plate (race 6), Champagne Stakes (race 7) and the All Aged Stakes (race 8). Have to wait until the last race for the best bet. Best Bet Kibou (Randwick Race 10 No. 3) Smart runner who resumes off a break, has the gun
