A rare Monday twilight meeting is scheduled for the Heath track at Caulfield with an eight-race meeting scheduled to help kick off the new week of racing in Victoria. With clear skies forecast leading into the card and on raceday itself, the track is likely to remain in the Good 4 range, while the rail will be out 4m the entire circuit.
Action from Caulfield is set to commence at 3:30pm AEDT.
Best Bet at Caulfield Heath: Carbonados
It took the classy Sunshineinmypocket to overhaul Carbonados in the shadows of the winning post when returning from a four-month spell at Sandown. The fur-year-old gelding has always threatened to go to another level, and if he can replicate his fresh run on Monday, it could lead to bigger and better things going forward. The son of Belardo will likely land in a prominent position, provided Mick Dee can get across from barrier seven. From there, Carbonados can kick for home on the home turn and have too much of a margin that his rivals cannot bridge.
Best Bet
Race 8 – 
#5 Carbonados (7)
4yo Gelding | T: Ben, Will & JD Hayes | J: Michael Dee (60kg)
Next Best at Caulfield Heath: Barbaric Lad
Barbaric Lad is coming out of a hot BM64 event at Pakenham when finishing two lengths off the smart Untapped over 1400m and 1.7-lengths off subsequent winner Truffle Finder. The son of Brutal comes to this 1200m sprint third-up, so he will be rock-hard fit as he steps back to the 1200m. Ben Melham will have the son of Brutal settled towards the rear of the field from barrier nine, but with the blinkers on again to sharpen him up, Barbaric Lad will prove hard to hold out.
Next Best
Race 5 – 
#1 Barbaric Lad (9)
3yo Gelding | T: Anthony & Sam Freedman | J: Ben Melham (59.5kg)
Next Best Again at Caulfield Heath: Leonchroi
Leonchroi caught the eye on debut at Pakenham when savaging the line late over 1600m, and stepping up to the 1800m second-up looks ideal. He was hardly a winning chance throughout considering how far back in the run he got, so the fact he finished just over a length off the winner suggests he may have a bit of ability. Blake Shinn hops on board and if he can have the son of Contributer settled a touch closer on Monday, Leonchroi should have no issue in overhaulling his rivals this time around.
Next Best Again
Race 2 – 
#7 Leonchroi (4)
3yo Gelding | T: Mick Price & Michael Kent (Jnr) | J: Blake Shinn (59kg)
