Cox Plate 2023 Tips and Best Bets

Popular galloper Alligator Blood is looking to become the 18^th horse to complete the Caulfield Stakes – Cox Plate double in the same year.

It’s a feat Anamoe accomplished 12 months ago when he took out what is now known as the Might And Power Stakes before Australasia’s weight-for-age championship.

Prior to the Godolphin star, it was Winx back in 2016.

 

Freedy At The Valley

Anthony & Sam Freedman boast a 29% strike rate at Moonee Valley over the last 12 months and during that time have produced a +41% ROI.

 

 

 

Trackwalker Info

At acceptance time the track is good with Lanes 1 and 2 both ok and winnable.

Lanes 3 to 5 is the Sweet Spot and we expect the bulk of the winners to come through these lanes.

Advantage stalkers/ On-pace runners.

 

SPEED MAP  

 

Zaaki comes across and it just depends on how fast Tim Clark wants to go on Alligator Blood.

Our thoughts are he’ll hand up if Zaaki wants the lead otherwise they’ll be content with controlling the race

 

Tips for the Caulfield Cup

ALLIGATOR BLOOD

Ran a career peak figure in the Might And Power, which was his first run at 2000m on a dry track.

The rating he produced there would win around 90% of Cox Plates this century excluding the Winx quartet.

Maybe we’re only seeing the best of this guy now?

 

 

MILITARIZE

Has a 60% strike rate in Group 1 races and with 49.5kg will settle closer than he traditionally does.

Waller doesn’t take 3YOs to major races against older horses unless he’s certain they’ll measure up.
