West Wind Blows new favourite for the Caulfield Cup

West Wind Blows has swiftly become the frontrunner for the upcoming Caulfield Cup, causing bookies to drastically slash his odds following its nomination.

Trained by the reputable duo Simon and Ed Crisford, the galloper was initially priced at $26, but with its nomination, the odds have plummeted to $11, indicating a surge of confidence from bookmakers and punters alike.

West Wind Blows’ participation in the Spring Carnival appears likely, with a potential lead-up run in the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes ahead of the Caulfield Cup.

This strategy might set the stage for a potential showdown with Cox Plate aspirant Romantic Warrior.

Known for consistent performances in Group-level races, West Wind Blows notably secured second place in the G2 Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot and a commendable third place in the prestigious G1 Coral-Eclipse, trailing only behind Paddington and Emily Upjohn.
