Big money bets have seen classy import December Draw firm to clear favoritism for next month's Caulfield Cup. Betstar laid a bet of $14,000 @ $8.50 for a return of $119,000 and immediately tightened December Draw into $7 for the race to be run on Oct 15. Betstar's Alan Eskander says the punter is banking on DD winning Sat's Naturalism Stakes at Caulfield. 'December Draw has to win on Saturday to be guaranteed a run in the Caulfield Cup...The punter has obviously had a look at the entries for the Naturalism (Stakes) and put two and two together...Given he's only got 50kgs currently in the Caulfield Cup, Kav will almost be hoping for a penalty after Saturday to open up his jockey options for the horse,' says Eskander. The Naturalism winner is rarely penalised more than 1.5kgs for the Caulfield Cup.
