Caulfield Cup 2020 Tips

Many outstanding horses have won the Caulfield Cup such as Jameka, Let’s Elope, Might and Power, Doreimus amongst a host of highly talented if not champion horses.

In recent years there has been an influx of international horses coming to Australia to compete in the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival major staying races, the WS Cox Plate, the Melbourne Cup but also the Caulfield Cup.  Local horses have tended to dominate internationals over the years in the Caulfield Cup, but the internationals have been more competitive in recent times. It is also hard to compare the form of international horses here for the Caulfield Cup.

Another interesting observation is the previous year’s 3 year olds competing in the Caulfield Cup. As a rule, they get into the race with a weight advantage to older horses, which is critical.  When assessing the form we would always go back to the previous seasons 3 year old form to assess and then run the ruler over consistent performed older staying types to position ourselves for Caulfield Cup betting.
