Humidor has been outstanding in two runs for Darren Weir and Sportsbet.com.au punters are confident it will be third time lucky this Saturday at Caulfield in the Peter Young Stakes (1800m).
The former kiwi comes through the Carlyon Cup (1600m) where he did a mighty job in defeat behind stablemate Burning Front. He is suited up to 1800m, has the fitness edge and he did have tactical early speed when in NZ. Most punters think and hope that he will jump cleanly and roll forward to get a soft time of it because he has been $5.50 into $3.60 after as much as $8 was offered in all in markets.
Caulfield Cup winner Jameka, who produced a lovely first up run in the CF Orr, is the $3.90 favourite and has firmed in from $4. There has been nibbles for Stratum Star ($6.50-$6) and Tally ($21-$17) but it really is all about Humidor and Jameka.
