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.
