You’re in the right place for our Sunday Racing Tips on September 27th, including Caulfield best bets and our Ladbrokes Manikato Stakes Tips!
TALES OF TIME (4) has only made three appearances at the races since debuting but has certainly stamped himself as one to follow by winning twice, highlighted by an easy effort over 1000m at Sandown when resuming.
With natural improvement, he can go on with it this week.
| 5. Tales Of Time (4) J: Ben Melham 57.5kg 2x1x1 T: Clinton McDonald |
SOMETHINGS BURNIN’ (6) has enjoyed a smart rise to prominence this time in, breaking his maiden over 1200m at Sandown fresh from a break before a couple of nice performances up in grade at his two latest.
Having kept his best work for late when third behind two horses that settled closer in the Exford Plate last time out, the rise in trip this week suits and he Damian Lane can have him a little handier this time in the 2026 Stutt Stakes.

Having ended her debut prep with four consecutive wins, SASS APPEAL (4) picked up where she left off when winning a strong BM100 contest over 1400m at Flemington last month.
Since then, she’s been well in the market but ultimately finished fourth in races over 1400m here and at Listed level at Flemington, but that latest run particularly looked to be one of a horse looking for the mile.
She gets that this week, and a senior hoop in Damian Lane launching from a perfect barrier in the Ladbrokes Stocks Stakes 2026 field.
| 1. Sass Appeal (2) J: Damian Lane 58kg 1×144 T: Danny O’brien |
EXTRAGALACTIC (2) enjoyed a meteoric rise to prominence during her autumn preparation and went to the paddock after only just missing in Group 1 company.
There’s no doubt that she was doing her best work last and through the line in the Moir Stakes first up from a spell and with natural improvement, and James McDonald in the saddle, the Ladbrokes Manikato Stakes shapes as the perfect feature race for her.
| 13. Extragalactic (2) J: James McDonald 56.5kg 122×4 T: Trent Edmonds |
