Caulfield Race 3

Sportsbet Herbert Power Stakes (G2)

Prize Money: $400,000

BRAYDEN STAR (8) is going better than it looks in the form guide. He's been putting himself on speed and fighting on well, only two lengths off second last start in the G3 Naturalism Stakes won dominantly by Half Yours who is a clear Caulfield Cup favourite. Suited not to 2400m, he lands in the first four and should run another good race at each way odds. YOUNG WERTHER (3) hit the line powerfully two back in a good race at Flemington before tackling the G1 Turnbull Stakes last week, hardly disgraced when beaten 4.5 lengths by Sir Delius. Lands in a good spot here although 2400m is still a box he's yet to fully tick. PLYMOUTH (9) was a tough winner of the Benalla Cup last time out and can improve again up in trip. POST IMPRESSIONIST (2) is another going better than it looks, he just wants a race with tempo. SCARY (10) was better last time and might be able to go on with it.

At the latest run faded in the straight 9th of 11 at this track in the G1 Underwood on September 20 over 1800m, 5.5 len behind Sir Delius carrying 59kg at $51. The start before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 14 at this track Qlty on August 30 over 2000m, slow going long-neck behind Revelare with 60.5kg at $26. Big weight but will give a sight.

The race before that 9th of 13 at this track Bm84 on September 20 over 2000m, 5.5 len behind Gilded Water carrying 60kg at $8.50. Hard to fault and can go on with it.
