We have Vain Stakes tips and predictions for the Group 3 race at Caulfield on Saturday, where punters can invest in an even betting field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vain Stakes odds<\/strong><\/a> have Closer to Free at the top of the market following a run in the Golden Slipper, but we\u2019re looking elsewhere in the 1100m sprint for colts and geldings.<\/p>\n\n\n

#3 Hard Kick @ $5.50<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

We\u2019re keeping the faith with Hard Kick, who comes off a disappointing effort at Flemington. However, he was clearly in need of a hit out, and punters should expect a much stronger effort at Caulfield.<\/p>\n

Moving away from running down the straight at Flemington should help him. He\u2019s an on-pace runner, and if he finds the front, he should give a good kick, which is the benefit of being on the speed at this track.<\/p>\n

The 3YO son of All Too Hard hasn\u2019t been missed with Vain Stakes odds, which is a good sign, and Lindsay Park knows how to accurately place their horses. Therefore, we\u2019re backing Hard Kick to do exactly that on Saturday.<\/p>\n

#9 Myhro\u2019s Ruler @ $9.00<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

Sneaking under the radar is Myhro\u2019s Ruler, who was shinsore on debut at Caulfield, but his return to the track couldn\u2019t have gone better.<\/p>\n

The 3YO gelding by Wild Ruler won by six lengths at Echuca, and although he faces a field with more depth, we\u2019re not leaving him out of our Vain Stakes predictions.<\/p>\n

He clearly has enough ability to win at Group level, and he started as a $4.80 chance on debut at Listed level, so expectations were high. We expect a big spring from him, and his opening odds of $11 have firmed to $9, which is a good sign.<\/p>\n

#7 Confederation @ $11.00<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

There has been some betting support for Confederation, and we wouldn\u2019t put it past Chris Waller to get this colt ready enough to win at this level.<\/p>\n

The well-bred son of Wootton Bassett had mixed fortunes in his 2YO season, including a second placing on debut at Rosehill. He didn\u2019t fire last time out, but he should have matured nicely for this season.<\/p>\n

He remains a colt, so connections have big hopes for him, and he should get a good run in behind the speed from the inside draw. That could be the winning of the race, so he\u2019s not being left out of Vain Stakes predictions at double-figure odds.<\/p>\n

Punters get lovely odds with our Vain Stakes SRM<\/strong><\/a>, which includes our three selected runners.<\/p>\n

We have Hard Kick Top 3, Myhro\u2019s Ruler Top 4, and Confederation Top 4, which pays a generous $15 at the TAB. We don\u2019t need any of our runners to win, but as long as all three finish in the top 4, we\u2019re happy.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a good betting field for the Vain Stakes, so punters get value odds across the board. We add value to our SRM with Myhro\u2019s Ruler and Confederation, who are paying better odds than expected.<\/p>\n
