Another strong eight-race program lines up at Caulfield Heath this Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conditions look testing, with the track posted a Soft 7 at time of writing and further rain in the mix on race day. The rail stays in the True, so expect all runners to get their chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a card packed with competitive sprints, while our best bet lands in Race 7 \u2014 a smart type from the Hayes stable who looks ready to fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the full breakdown, dive into our race-by-race Caulfield Heath preview<\/strong> below.<\/p>\n\n\n

No. 4 Melbourne Magic\u00a0<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

MELBOURNE MAGIC (4)<\/strong> draws to get all the favours from the inside alley, which could prove crucial with the rail in the True.<\/p>\n

Simon Wilde\u2019s four-year-old is still chasing his maiden win, having been tested first-up in a tougher race at Warrnambool where he finished midfield in very heavy conditions.<\/p>\n

He\u2019ll be much better suited getting onto a firmer surface here and strips fitter second-up over the 1200m. Expect Craig Williams to settle back from the draw, conserve energy early and look to finish over the top late.<\/p>\n

\n
Each Way<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

LOCARD (11)<\/strong> gets in nicely at the weights with the benefit of the 2kg claim.<\/p>\n

The Blue Point filly was a touch green on debut at Bendigo, running into early traffic before overdoing things at a crucial stage and finishing back in the field.<\/p>\n

She\u2019d shown she handles the wet in jump outs leading in, and with the low draw to suit, she shapes as a genuine chance dropping back to the 1000m.<\/p>\n

\n
\n <\/span>\n Race time: <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n

RICH DOTTIE (1)<\/strong> resumes for Grahame Begg and brings some solid first-up form to this.<\/p>\n

The Written Tycoon mare was contesting stronger races over the spring, including a Group 2 sprint at Caulfield where she wasn\u2019t far away behind Rey Magnerio.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s trialled up nicely ahead of her return and from the inside draw should be able to roll forward, control the tempo and give a good sight on speed.<\/p>\n

No. 8 Pula <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

PULA (8)<\/strong> just needs a touch of luck early from the wide draw to bring up a hat-trick.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s been kept fresh with a three-week gap since her narrow win over this track and trip, and that form has stacked up nicely since.<\/p>\n

The third horse has gone on to win the Casterton Cup, while runner-up Autumn Slide has since performed well in Stakes company at Morphettville.<\/p>\n

She\u2019ll appreciate any rain that arrives, and with Craig Williams in the saddle, she looks in safe hands.<\/p>\n

\n
Each Way<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

ELECTRIC STAR (11)<\/strong> looks well up to this assignment.<\/p>\n

The Zoustar mare was an eye-catching winner at Pakenham a fortnight ago, charging home late after a slow start to score at her first run for the Tolson and Proctor team in similar conditions.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s a proven wet tracker, draws to get a nice run from the low gate, and with the apprentice claim gets in well at the weights carrying just 56.5kg.<\/p>\n

No. 2 Gwen\u2019s Girl <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

GWEN\u2019S GIRL (2)<\/strong> is worth forgiving off a plain first-up showing on the heavy track at Warrnambool.<\/p>\n

The Rubick filly settled a long way back and gave away too much start but still worked home nicely to grab third.<\/p>\n

She\u2019ll appreciate getting onto a slightly firmer surface second-up, and her earlier form this prep shows she\u2019s more than capable over these sharp sprint trips.<\/p>\n

From the soft draw, she maps to roll forward, take up the running and give a strong sight on speed.<\/p>\n

\n
Tip of The Day<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

VIVACISSIMO (9)<\/strong> should appreciate getting out in trip second-up.<\/p>\n

The Hayes camp have a very honest mare on their hands here, with the daughter of Contributer finishing no worse than fourth in her past seven runs.<\/p>\n

She was runner-up over 1300m at Bendigo earlier this month, settling back before making good late ground.<\/p>\n

Drawn to find clear running, she\u2019ll be saved for one last crack under Ben Allen and should be right in the finish.<\/p>\n

No. 8 Barbaric Lad <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

BARBARIC LAD (8)<\/strong> can be a bit hit and miss, but there was plenty to like about his first-up effort at Geelong.<\/p>\n

The Freedman-trained gelding blew the start and settled well back, but once he found clear running in the straight, he let down strongly to grab second under Mark Zahra.<\/p>\n

They reunite here second-up, and with a kinder draw this time, he shouldn\u2019t have as much to do in the run.<\/p>\n
