A little history of Caulfield
Racing at Caulfield dates to the nineteenth century and the venue has evolved alongside Melbourne into a modern metropolitan course. Its signature Cup remains a central lead-up to the Melbourne Cup.
What to look for in the form
Barrier position and the run to the first turn can matter at several starts, so map early speed as well as assessing the final section of recent races.
Fat Tony says: Track knowledge helps, but it never replaces current form. Compare today’s distance, surface, draw and likely pace before making a call.
