There are just 11 days to go before the 2010 Caulfield Cup jumps at Caulfield Racecourse. Now is the time to make your preparations, including taking advantage of early Caulfield Cup odds for a shot at massive payouts. Though, before you put your money down on the upcoming Group 1 feature, here are a few helpful Caulfield Cup tips that are definitely worth keeping in mind when you place your bets.
#1: The First Of Our Caulfield Cup Tips Is To Do A Little Research.
There is no better way to gauge a horse’s performance in a future race than to look into how they have performed in the past at similar distances, at the same track, under the same conditions, and/or with the same jockey.
This year’s Caulfield Cup favourite is currently the Bart Cummings-trained Precedence. He is listed at $8.00 odds at Sportsbet. The four-year-old bay gelding is coming into the Caulfield Cup off of a big win in the Group 2 JRA Cup. At 2040 metres, it is a similar distance to the 2400 metre Caulfield Cup. In addition, this son of Zabeel has recently performed well at Caulfield, running second to Jungle Ruler on the track in late August. All of this makes this horse a smart choice when putting your money down.
To help you pick your Caulfield Cup winner this year, be sure to check out the upcoming Toorak Handicap (1600m) and Yalumba Stakes (2000m) to be held this Saturday, October 9 at Caulfield. The top runners in these races will most likely go on to do well in the 2010 Caulfield Cup.
#2: The Second Of Our Caulfield Cup Tips Is To Take Advantage Of Exotic Bets.
While betting on the favourite is a decent strategy, it isn’t always the best if you’re looking to make more money. Try an exotic bet such as a Caulfield Cup exacta, quinella, trifecta, or first four. These types of Caulfield Cup exotics allow you to choose the first two to four horses to cross the finish line.
These exotics can be a little harder to predict, which is why they offer more generous odds. If you do your research (Caulfield Cup tips #1) then you stand a chance to bring in some pretty lucrative payouts. When considering your 2010 Caulfield Cup bets, why not put down a box trifecta on Precedence to win with Metal bender, Dariana, and Shocking to place. Or, place an exacta on Precedence and Herculian Prince to finish in first and second place.
