The Group 2 PB Lawrence Stakes is the highlight of a strong program at racing at Caulfield while over in Adelaide racing is at Morphettville.
Best Bet
Elouyou is building a formidable record having never missed a place in eight career runs and he looks well capable of adding this to his CV. The gelding ventured to Rosehill last time and was a dominant all the way winner in what has proved to be a hot form race with three subsequent winners. He draws to get the right run on speed and although I don’t expect him to shorten from the $2.20 on offer now, he is a very worthy favourite to close the day.
Recommended Price: $2.20
Confidence Level: 4.5/5

Dipsy Doodle comes down to Victorian with some very handy recent Sydney form and the Godolphin mare should take plenty of beating here. She was just run down last time at Randwick and coming back 100m in trip will do her no harm. Jamie Kah should position outside the leader and be strong late.
Recommended Price: $4.00

On The Scent has long shown nice ability and he strikes a winnable race first up. I particularly liked his recent trial at Morphettville where he finished a close up second under very little pressure. From barrier one he will need some luck but is well capable of winning if it comes his way.

In Her Stride was a total forget run at Caulfield. Ethan Brown made an (admitted) error in allowing another runner to cross him in the home straight and never saw daylight. Ben Melham taking over is a big positive and her previous form was very strong for a race of this kind.

With seven of the eleven runners in this field first up the value should lie with the raced horses and Ka Bling fits the bill. He showed a terrific turn of foot to win the Ramornie Handicap at Grafton last start which is always a strong race and he’s been completely ignored by the market at $16 in early betting. From barrier one he will need luck but he is a big winning chance.

Gentleman Roy looks nice value to cause the upset in this year’s PB Lawrence. These early season weight for age races are often won by an on pace horse that is race fit and he certainly fits the bill, coming off back to back impressive wins. Going back he has some weight for age form and he is capable of stepping up.
