Godolphin has secured its second Caulfield Cup after Best Solution held on in a desperate finish to win the $5 million race.
Ridden by Pat Cosgrave for trainer Saeed bin Suroor, Best Solution fended off Homesman with The Cliffsofmoher taking the minor placing.
The win comes a decade after Saeed bin Suroor trained All The Good to win the world’s richest 2400m handicap race.
Following Best Solution’s win he has shortened into the $9.00 second favourite in Melbourne Cup odds behind Yucatan.
