Will this be the last time we see the champion mare in Australia? It’s the question that will be on everyone’s lips when we see Black Caviar line up in The Goodwood on Saturday. Looking to make it 21 from 21, she is currently at her standard quote of $1.04 with Luxbet, before heading to the UK for the Diamond Jubilee at Royal Ascot.
Fighting it out for the placings in the Group 1 race is where the competition heats up. We’re Gonna Rock ($26), Catapulted ($41) and local hope, Go The Knuckle ($31) will want to lay a claim for second. All three finished behind Outlandish Lad ($41) in the Group 3 McKay Stakes at Morphettville last month, the same day Black Caviar made it 20 in a row in the Robert Sangster Stakes.
At Luxbet this Saturday they are calling it Mad Morphetville as punters can take advantage of their special at this meeting. Simpl y place a Fixed Odds or LuxDiv WIN bet on any race and if your selection comes second to the SP favourite, Luxbet will give you a Bonus Bet equal to your stake, up to $200.
Away from Adelaide and the Brisbane Winter Racing Carnival kicks off at Doomben this week with the Group 1 BTC Cup. Buffering is currently the favourite at $2.70 as he looks to break through for his overdue maiden Group 1 victory. The Rob Heathcote trained gelding’s job was made a whole lot easier when Peter Moody decided not to defend Black Caviar’s title.
Sydney sprinters Sea Siren ($7), Neeson ($9) and Beaded ($10) will be out to spoil Buffering’s hopes but competition also comes in the form of recent Group 1 winner Temple of Boom ($12) and another Heathcote runner Woorim ($12), returning from a successful stint down South.
