    You think if Nature Strip shows up & runs at his best he wins the Everest but it's just hard to see how he turns his form around although his just too classy of a horse to right off... 

    I'm going with Trekking, chased Pippie home last start to blow the cobwebs out. Up to 1200mm now.

     Caulfield Cup, sticking with Master of Wine. Been to 2400mm once for one win and has been building nicely to be primed for tomorrow. 

    Having said that neither will probably win ?

    Prob with nature strip and Veery is they have both shown patchy form leading up. Both could easily win or finish midfield.

    And now the give in the ground is in Verry Elleegant's favour ... and she was the nominal favourite beforehand.  The one to beat

    I'm including a couple of the lightweight chances though. 

    The Everest is arguably a harder race to evaluate as nearly all 12 runners can win. 

    But if the big boy gets the right run from barrier 2 (as he often does from the inside barriers) he'll at least get into the top 3

    Could be a blanket finish though with so many classy sprinters assembled.

    2 really good betting races and probably the best Caulfield Cup line up for a time too

    Can I take Geelong as my best bet tomorrow ? Absolutely think the $2.10 on offer is value, might multi them up with a couple place bets or win and see how we go.. Reckon the occasion gets to the young Lions & Cats are well due for a prelim win & GF

    As some one who lives down the Geelong way and works down there too I hope the Lions slaughter them unless we are guaranteed for the tigers to slaughter them in the GF.

    I’ve landed on MoW in the cup, still think Veery Elegant is the one to beat and will add in a multi. But I’m giving master of wine another backing.

    Hi guys 

    I'm a bit late for the Caulfield Cup but just wanted to wish you all a happy Spring Carnival.

    Amazed that we didn't sell the Melbourne Cup to Queensland like we did with everything else.

    What's the Cox Plate field looking like quality wise this year ?

    @Diamond_Jim

    Russian Camelot is the fav, Arcadia Queen not far behind it, will see the field drop numbers over the next few days. There are def some good value for some of the other horses right now, but it’s all going to depend of weather and I think it’s rain/storms forecast this far out.

    Well that was the worst I’ve ever done at a Caulfield cup/ Everest day.

    One third, four fourths, 3 which were photos. Not my day, got a few more that play out Tonight and tomorrow on Brownlow night so whilst I’m down now, hoping for Recovery.

    Hope you all faired better than me.

    I got a number of collects but all the dividends were small. For instance got both exactas in the 2 feature races but was hoping for some value runners getting into the finish. 

    I still haven't seen any of the races yet but the class prevailed in the Everest & Caulfield Cup.  I'll post up the replays with some comments soon enough

    Might fare better at Ascot (UK) tonight.  4 Group 1's & a Group 2 beginning just after 11.00pm tonight.  And Sha Tin tomorrow!

    My pick

    MV Race 6, 3 Cherry Tortoni 5.50/1.75

     

    All 3 in a Place Multi shows a dividend of $14 ... that's good value considering our best place hope is probably JV's tip - at the best odds (Blazing Miss)

    All 3 in a Win Multi is paying $418 - and all 3 can win!  Let's hope so anyway ?

    Nice work Gorg

    Had it for the win and got it in a few multi's as well.  Gets our treble off to a good start!

    Me too, unfortunately the only on I have left is our one with all too place. I stuffed up and did place on all instead of each way. But that’s ok, did another with all wins it age came second. Reckon a drier track and age beats it.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
