2012 Caulfield Cup – Betting Odds

The 2012 Caulfield Cup is due to run at Caulfield Racecourse on Saturday October 20, 2012, and betting odds have now been released for the race.

bookmaker.com.au has placed Green Moon as the favourite to win the 2012 Caulfield Cup, with the six-year-old currently paying $14.

The Montjeu entire has impressed since arriving in Australia last year from Great Britain, showing his true talent  during last year’s spring racing carnival.

Green Moon won the Group 3 Newcastle Gold Cup last spring before placing second behind Southern Speed in the Caulfield Cup.

He then went on to place a disappointing 12th in The Lexus Stakes and failed to make the Melbourne Cup field.

Green Moon has had just one start this year, winning the Group 2 Blamey Stakes by a length at Flemington on March 10.

He has won five of his 15 race starts and has earned more than $700,000 in prize money during his horse racing career.

Mawingo is currently second favourite to win the 2012 Caulfield Cup at bookmaker.com.au at $19, while there are five horses paying $21 on the third line of betting.

These include Dunaden, Fat Al, Gatewood, Quest For Peace and Southern Speed.

2012 Caulfield Cup Odds Change After First Acceptances

Connections of 116 horses have paid the first acceptance fee for the 2012 Caulfield Cup (2400m), which has led to some major changes to 2012 Caulfield Cup odds.

Connections of 2011 Melbourne Cup runner-up Red Cadeaux did not pay the first acceptance fee and this has led to the prices of the other leading contenders shortening

Lloyd Williams-owned Green Moon is still on the top of Caulfield Cup betting markets and is currently priced at $16 at bookmaker.com.au.

The Montjeu stallion will run in the Group 2 Dato’ Tan Chin Nam Stakes (1600m) this Saturday at Moonee Valley.

Co-owner Nick Williams put a scare through punters last week when he said that Green Moon was no certainty to run in the Caulfield Cup and may instead target the 2012 Cox Plate.

Southern Speed is now on the second line of Caulfield Cup betting after her victory in the Group 2 Makybe Diva Stakes (1600m) at Flemington last Saturday.

The Southern Image mare will become the first mare in the history of the Caulfield Cup to win the race twice.

2011 Melbourne Cup winner Dunaden is priced at $18 at bookmaker.com.au.

The French-stayer will be the first horse to carry 58kg and win the Caulfield Cup since the great Northerly in 2002.

Manighar is on the fourth line of Caulfield Cup betting after his impressive run behind Southern Speed in the Makybe Diva Stakes.

The seven-year-old gelding ran fourth in last year’s Caulfield Cup and appears to be well placed to improve on that effort in 2012.

Last year’s beaten favourite December Draw, international stayer JakkalberryDavid Vandyke-trained Lamasery, returning galloper Moudre and 2012 Australian Derby runner-up Polish Knight are all currently priced at $21 in the Caulfield Cup betting market at bookmaker.com.au.

They are followed in the market by ExcludedMaluckydayMount Athos and Quest For Peace.

2012 Caulfield Cup Hopefuls Head Underwood Stakes Field

The Group 1 Underwood Stakes (1800m), to be race this Saturday at Caulfield, will have a major impact on 2012 Caulfied Cup odds.

Twelve of the fourteen runners in the $400,000 Underwood Stakes are nominated for the 2012 Caulfield Cup meaning that the Caulfield Cup picture should be a lot clearer after this Saturday.

However, the winner of the Underwood Stakes is definitely not a certainty to win the 2012 Caulfield Cup as no horse has done the double since Mummify in 2003.

Equal Caulfield Cup second favourites Manighar and Southern Speed will lock horns once again in the Underwood Stakes.

Southern Speed defeated Manighar by a nose to win the Makybe Diva Stakes (1600m) and avenge her loss to the seven-year-old gelding by the same margin in the 2012 Australian Cup.

Manighar is unlikely to contest the Caulfield Cup but is still priced at $16 in the Caulfield Cup betting market at bookmaker.com.au alongside Southern Speed.

December Draw struggled in the Makybe Diva Stakes but trainer Mark Kavanagh is hoping the import will return to form in the Underwood Stakes.

The seven-year-old gelding won the Naturalism Stakes (2000m) on Underwood Stakes day last year, a result that confirmed him as Caulfield Cup favourite.

December Draw is currently priced at $21 in 2012 Caulfield Cup betting markets but that price will shorten dramatically if he wins on Saturday.

2010 Melbourne Cup runner-up Maluckyday will attempt to qualify for the 2012 Caulfield Cup by winning the Underwood Stakes.

The lightly raced six-year-old finished a solid eighth in his return to racing in the Memsie Stakes (1400m) and he does have a decent second-up record.

The Hawkes family-trained gelding is at odds of $26 in the 2012 Caulfield Cup betting market at bookmaker.com.au.

2012 Sydney Cup winner Niwot is another Caulfield Cup contender that will take part in the Underwood Stakes.

The son of Galileo will likely be outpaced in this race but is on target for another crack at the Caulfield Cup and Melbourne Cup.

December Draw has firmed as favourite for the 2012 Caulfield Cup that will be run at Caulfield Racecourse on the on October 20.

The Mark Kavanagh-trained import is now priced at $9 in the 2012 Caulfield Cup betting market at bookmaker.com.au.

The seven-year-old will have his final preparatory run in the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes (2000m) this Saturday; a race that he won last year before finishing last in the Caulfield Cup.

Also running in the Turnbull Stakes will be 2011 Caulfield Cup winner Southern Speed.

The daughter of Southern Image is now priced at odds of $12 to become the first mare to win the Caulfield Cup twice.

Another Caulfield Cup contender taking part in the Turnbull Stakes this Saturday is Lloyd Williams-owned Green Moon.

The Montjeu stallion has been in terrific form this campaign and is nominated for both the Caulfield Cup and Cox Plate.

Connections will decide which races he targets after the Turnbull Stakes.

The six-year-old is currently priced at $13 in the 2012 Caulfield Cup betting market at bookmaker.com.au but will his odds will be much shorter if connections announce him as a definite starter.

The big market mover in the Caulfield Cup betting market has been 2010 Melbourne Cup winner Americain.

Racing Victoria’s international scout Leigh Jordon confirmed this morning that he had spoken to leading French trainer Alain de Royer Dupre who told him he was leaning towards running Americain in the world’s richest 2400m handicap race.

The Dynaformer eight-year-old had his Caulfield Cup quote slashed from $51 to $16.

Americain is joined on $16 by fellow international galloper Jakkalberry.

The Australian-owned Italian-trained stayer arrived in Australia on Saturday and is reported to be in fantastic condition.

The other horses under $20 in the 20120 Caulfield Cup betting market at bookmaker.com.au are Newcastle Cup winner Glencadam Gold, Italian import Voila Ici, 2011 Melbourne Cup winner Dunaden and Hill Stakes winner Lamasery.

2012 Caulfield Cup Betting – Final Field And Barriers Announced

Glencadam Gold is still the favourite for the 2012 Caulfield Cup despite drawing barrier twenty-one.

Connections weren’t too upset with the draw as the imported stayer runs on the pace and most of the other fancied horse also drew outside.

The Gai Waterhouse-trained gelding is currently priced at $4.80 in the Caulfield Cup betting market at bookmaker.com.au.

Second favourite Dunaden also drew poorly and will start from the very outside of the field.

The 2011 Melbourne Cup winner has been well backed during the week but is expected to drift slightly because of the poor alley.

December Draw drew in the middle of the field and is another horse that has been well backed this week.

The Mark Kavanagh-trained import is still a question mark over 2400m having only run over the distance once, in last year’s Caulfield Cup where he was injured and finished last.

Lights of Heaven has been the market mover in the Caulfield Cup betting market at bookmaker.com.au and is now into odds of $12.

The Zabeel mare struggled early in her spring campaign but found form to finish third behind Lamasery in the Hill Stakes (2000m).

Peter Moody also has Viola Ici and Sneak A Peek in the race and he believes Sneak A Peek may be his best chance in the race.

“Sneak A Peek has worked every bit as good as any of these horses at home including Manighar,” the leading trainer said.

The five-year-old is having just his fourth start in Australia, after joining the Moody stable earlier this year, and is available at odds of $16.

2010 Melbourne Cup winner Americain, international raider Jakkalberry, defending Caulfield Cup winner Southern SpeedLuca Cumani-trained My Quest For Peace and eight-year-old Alcopop are the other runners at odds of less than $20.
