Caulfield Heath Race 5

Thoroughbred Club Of Australia Hcp (C1)

Prize Money: $55,000

ONAVUITTON (1) resumed off a long break with an easy Maiden win at Cranbourne. He'd placed in a Group 2 prior and returned to that grade last time beaten less than 3L at Caulfield. Carries top weight but will be fitter and is well-placed in a CL1 over a mile. ZAKOUMA (2) resumes for the smart Begg stable and has raced well over ground at Stakes level. He won a Geelong Maiden by 4.3L over 1700m first up last time and he kicks off today at a mile. Childs steers from an inside barrier and he has to be taken seriously. MONGOLIAN MISSION (4) peaks and is ready to win. Raced forward his latest when narrowly beaten over 1400m in a 66 at Sale and from a soft gate will get every chance to run out the extra metres. LEVERAGED BUYOUT (6) found the grade a bit rich at Caulfield but was good winning a Pakenham Maiden over 1600m prior. No surprise if he's in the money. Maher-trained RUSSIAN DUCHESS (8) steps up from an easy Maiden win at Geelong and showed enough to take seriously.

First-up. Finished off last campaign third of 15 at Sandown-Hillside Bm70 July 30 over 1800m, soft track; 1.3 len behind Superstock carrying 56kg at $8. Previous preparation first-up to post a big 4.5 len win. Geelong Mdn-Sw June 5 over 1700m slow track defeating Coral Impact with 59.5kg at $2.80. Talented and the race day betting will be key.
