A ‘general’ will take command at Caulfield on Saturday and The Race Club’s Adam Curkpatrick is backing the general to salute.
For his value bet, the racing expert is all over a 3YO filly to get the chocolates at a juicy double-digit price.
Best Bet – Caulfield (Saturday)
GENERAL BEAU ($5.00, $2.15), Race 6, 1000m
General Beau will need a shade of luck from the rails draw, however with that, he is the horse to beat in my book.
Tidy jump out leading in, running time and extending well under minor urging.
I’ve warmed to the 1000m kick off given the likely speed in the race.
Tip: Win
General Beau too big, too classy in the Listed Blue Diamond Preview at Caulfield.

Value Bet
AZULA ($9.50, $2.90), Race 5, 1400m
Resumes on the back of two solid trials, both being sharp and improving in the second of those.
She sets up well regardless of how the race pans out.
She was well backed in the JJ last prep, post a tough on pace effort prior.
Cases to be made for plenty of others, however at double figures, I’m comfortable making her a good value play.
Tip: Win
