Dandino’s Melbourne Cup odds slashed as Williams finds trouble in the Caulfield Cup
October 21st, 2013 by Pom de TurfCraig Williams might have won the previous two runnings of the Caulfield Cup (on Southern Speed and Dunaden) but he certainly wasn’t the toast of punters at Caulfield on Saturday.
On any other day, Dandino would have won by two lengths but Williams’ indecision when Jet Away took off eventually cost him the race. Williams’ claim that he was beaten by the barrier draw really doesn’t stack up consdering Dunaden won from gate 22 the previous year. It was simply a rare bad day at Caulfield for Craig.
The Marco Botti trained charge now heads to Flemington as the $9.00 second favourite alongside Fiorente and that looks a good price to us. Indeed, Dandino’s misfortune at Caulfield could well be the springboard for a glorious Melbourne Cup run with that precious first experience under the belt for horse and jockey.
Fawkner, the winner of the 2013 Caulfield Cup, also looks likely to head to Flemington as Lloyd Williams seeks another famous first Tuesday of November.
