CAULFIELD 14 DEC

Here is the predicted track pattern and Best Bet for Caulfield on Thursday

TRACKWALKER INFO

Lanes 1,2 slightly inferior and we are expecting the bulk of the winners to use lanes 3+. This should provide an advantage to horses that can stalk the speed or settle midfield and blend into the race around the turn

KEY STATS

Trainer Grahame Begg has taken 5 horses to Caulfield over the last month and walked away with 3 winners more than doubling your investment

NIC ASHMAN TIP

Race 6 No.4 LAVISH THINKER $10 - RATED $6

Flies second-up and his ratings suggest he should be a lot shorter than $13. His form on good tracks looks plain at first glance but delve deeper and you'll find his 3 runs auger well for this including his 3.9L defeat behind FIRST IMMORTAL, who was a cups horse last spring. Slightly cautious of 1600m being a tad too short but we are bouyed by the Trackwalker Info saying run-on horses will come into play. We have him rated $6 and he looks massive overs at $13
