“I think he explodes”: Jules Vallance keen on key horses at Caulfield

Must read

Leading form analyst Jules Vallance is very keen on one horse in particular at Caulfield on Saturday.

Vallance is loving the profile of the Paul Preusker-trained Torranzino who races third-up over 2000m in Race 4.

Listen to what he said on Torranzino and a couple of other runners he is siding with at Caulfield.

Race 4, No.13 – Torranzino ($3.7)

“The one that I’m really most interested in comes up in Race 4 called Torranzino,” he said on SENTrack’s Giddy Up.

“I’ve just got a huge opinion of this horse. I think it’s taken some time, and it might still be half a run off, but third-up at 2000m might be the time we actually get a price. A kilo over the minimum.

“I want some rain to come. This time last year it came from a Warracknabeal maiden where it rated average and then went to 2000m at Caulfield and went absolutely through the roof. Then it started a short-priced favourite at Moonee Valley when it got to a dry track.

“I think it needs the sting out. I think he’s been building, I thought his run last start was good, and now I think he explodes.

“Second go at 2000m this prep I’m really excited about next start, but we might not get a price next start and I just still think he can do a number on these ones.

“If the rain does come I don’t think we’ll get anywhere near the price he is.”

Race 8, No.1 – Fleetwood ($2.5)

“That number in Sydney that Fleetwood ran – and The Black Cloud ran a place in – was just enormous, absolutely enormous.

“I think The Black Cloud will be better around a bend, I can’t wait to see her get to a track like Caulfield.

“It sets up so well for Fleetwood. It’s probably a shame that The Black Cloud ran last week in terms of trying to get a price for Fleetwood.

“That hurts the price of Fleetwood, but Gate 1, D.Lane, how can you really be against her? I think the market will continue to gravitate towards her.”

Race 10, No.6 – Chorlton Lane ($2.3)

“It will be under the minimum with Celine Gaudray who is such a great rider.

“That kind of gate (5), just hard to beat.”

Vallance was also very keen on Rogue Rocker in Race 4 at Morphettville provided it’s not too wet in Adelaide.
