The Caulfield Cup is always an outstanding betting race and that is definitely the case in 2017 – you can make a case for just about every horse in this field.

It is Ladbrokes Stakes runner-up Johannes Vermeer that is currently favourite at 2017 Caulfield Cup odds of $4.40 with Ladbrokes and there is then a gap to the likes of Australian Oaks winner Bonneval ($7.50), Darren Weir-trained Humidor ($8.50), talented stayer mare Amelie’s Star and Naturalism Stakes winner Harlem ($10).

The Caulfield Cup is the obvious highlight this afternoon, but there are plenty of other stellar races including the Caulfield Sprint, Ladbrokes Moonga Stakes, Tristarc Stakes and Coongy Cup.

We will be updating the results for Caulfield Day all afternoon long, so don’t miss out on a single second of the action with horseracing.com.au.

Cliff’s Edge led from start to finish to take out the 2017 Ladbrokes Classic at Caulfield this afternoon.

Main Stage was able to run down Cliff’s Edge late in the UCI Stakes a fortnight ago, but there was no repeat of that this afternoon as Cliff’s Edge kicked clear from his rivals at the top of the straight and never looked like being beaten.

Cliff’s Edge is now set to step-up to the 2500 metres of the Victoria Derby and will have another clash with Tangled and Main Stage.

Samovare took up the running in the early stages of the Coongy Cup from Assign, while Kiwia was settled in the second half of the field.

It had been tough for horses to make up ground from the tail of the field in the first five races, but that wasn’t the case in the Coongy Cup as Kiwia finished over the top of his rivals to record the biggest win of his racing career to date.

Kiwia will now head to the Bendigo Cup.

  • 1st – Kiwia

The amazing Caulfield Cup Day of Darren Weir continued with a quinella in the 2017 Ladbrokes Moonga Stakes at Caulfield this afternoon.

Boom Time scored a stunning upset victory in the 2017 Caulfield Cup at Caulfield this afternoon.

There was plenty of action in the early stages of the Caulfield Cup and eventually it was Sir Issac Newton that took up the running before he opened up a huge lead at the 800 metre mark.

He quickly came back to the field, but he clearly gassed the chasing group and it was anybody’s race in the final stages of the race.

Single Gaze looked as though she would claim victory, but it was Boom Time that finished stronger to record one of the biggest upsets in Caulfield Cup history.

  • 1st – Boom Time
  • 2nd – Single Gaze
  • 3rd – Faatinaah

It was Savanna Armour that took up the running in the early stages of the Tristarc Stakes, while Global Glamour settled just outside the leader.

Global Glamour hit the front at the top of the straight, but she looked like a sitting duck when Cool Passion loomed on the inside.

Cool Passion headed Global Glamour at one point, but the stunning mare was able to fight back and record another big win.

  • 2nd – Cool Passion
  • 3rd – Shillelagh

Fuhryk returned to winning form with an impressive victory in the Alinghi Stakes at Caulfield this afternoon.

It had been a tough 2017 Spring Racing Carnival campaign for Fuhryk before the Alinghi Stakes, but Craig Williams gave her a peach of a ride and he showed an impressive turn-of-foot when asked for an extra effort.

Co-trainer Ben Hayes was impressed with the win of Fuhryk and he believes that a Group 1 win could be in the offering for Fuhryk.

  • 1st – Fuhryk
  • 2nd – Lyuba
  • 3rd – Nieta
