Our Black Book: Horses You Must Follow From Caulfield 29/6
July 2, 2024
Our analyst has reviewed the sectional times, ratings & replays from last Saturday’s Caulfield meeting & has placed four horses you must follow in our black book below.
First Setter
Sat backfield and cruised around the outside to win by 2.25 lengths. He hit the front with 200m to go and did a demolition job on rivals with the quickest last 200m of the meeting, 11.04 seconds. This was his first career run and he looks primed to progress through the grades.
KinÂ
Jumped away okay and was able to find good running midfield. She showed an impressive turn of foot in the last 100m to chase down Mrs Chrissie. Will benefit from the run and can win again.
Miss RoumbiniÂ
Got shuffled back from the inside barrier. When rounding into the straight her rivals went to the middle of the track, allowing her a clean run up the rail to hit the line in front by a head. She has now made it two wins in a row, no reason she can’t make it three.
FleetwoodÂ
He completely missed the start and was never any chance to win from there. He regained contact with the back of the field at the 400m mark. Flashed home in a mighty effort to get third. If he nailed the start he would have won. Will be hard to beat next start.
