Epilepsy Foundation of Victoria Handicap – 1200m
Race 1 had Sleepers ($11) win impressively, with Mac Chois ($3.50f) taking a hard earned second and That’s Not It ($8.50) finishing back in third. Sleepers lead from the beginning and kept leading, while Mac Chois was resigned to second place for the entire run.
Harrolds Fashion Plate – 1400m
Race 2 saw Berringama take an unlikely victory ($19). Amaethon ($9) ended the race in second place, while Tagus ($9) ran to the finish in third. Berringama stayed back until the very end, where a show of heart in the final straight gave the outsider a well-earned victory.
Herbert Power Stakes – 2400m
Race 3 went to Linton ($4.60) after a strong run home ahead of second place Cedarberg ($31) and third place Precedence ($2.60f). Unfortunately for many punters, Precedence wasted energy at the start, making way for Cedarberg to prove their staying power and Linton to bolt ahead at the end.
Schillaci Stakes – 1000m
Race 4 saw Black Caviar ($1.80f) preserve an unbeaten record, finishing in front of Winter King ($26) in second place and General Truce ($31) in third. Despite coming back from a long break and injury, Black Caviar had lost no speed and just barely missed out on the race record.
Yalumba Stakes – 2000m
Race 5 went much as expected with So You Think ($1.40f) taking the victory in style. Alcopop ($41) was a surprise in second, while Whobegotyou ($4) finished in third. So You Think sat behind Red Ruler at first, but once the final straight came up, jockey Steven Arnold took his champion runner ahead for a dominant 3.3 length victory.
Toorak Handicap – 1600m
Race 6 finished with no one in shock about the first place result as More Joyous ($2.30f) took the lead just in time. Coming in behind by only 0.4 of a length was We’re Gonna Rock ($12) in second, and Poor Judge ($51) took third in a photo finish with Luen Yat Forever just missing out.
FEATURE RACE – Caulfield Guineas – 1600m
Race 7 was the race days eponymous event, and it was a heart-pumping climax to the day as the final straight separated the champion stayers from the also-rans. Caulfield Guineas Prelude winner Anacheeva ($6) was the eventual victor after a desperate battle with second place finisher Run For Levi ($31), followed by a third place for Masquerader ($10). Toorak Toff and Ilovethiscity (both $5f) were the biggest disappointments, as Toorak Toff slacked off near the end just as he took the lead and Ilovethiscity had punters tasting bile with a tenth place finish.

Thoroughbred Club Stakes – 1200m
Race 8 saw Solar Charged ($7.50) run ahead of Jesse’s Girl ($5.50) as they made their way home, with Dance of the Ocean ($20) not quite catching up for a third place finish. Solar Charged impressed punters with a 4.3 length winning margin, which looked even more impressive with the photo finish for second and third.
Sportingbet Sprint Series Final – 1200m
Race 9 gave Avenue ($3.60) a convincing victory, followed by Red Flair ($14) coming in second and Dorf Command ($9.50) the third place finisher.
