Japanese stayer Bande has been well backed to win the Caulfield Cup on Saturday.

The international invader has firmed from $9.00 into $7.50 with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au.
Moves have also come for Junoob ($14) and Dandino ($17). Favourite Lucia Valentina ($4.60) remains the best backed runner.
“Since the barrier draw punters have made a really strong move for Bande. His form in Japan is first class and by all reports he’s thrived since arriving in Australia,’’ sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson said.
In the Caulfield Classic $51 outsider Firehouse Rock has been well supported. Kiwi Merion ($6.00) also has plenty of admirers, but punters are avoiding $4.00 favourite Kumaon like the plague.
In good news for punters, Sportsbet will refund punter bets if your horse runs second, third of fourth in the Caulfield Cup!
