Sydney trainer Bjorn Baker will attempt another raid on a rich Flemington three-year-old race when Caballus runs in the Inglis Sprint.
Baker collected the Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes with Ozzmosis last spring and while the Inglis Sprint (1100m) does not carry the same prestige, it does have $1 million in prize money.
Caballus, a former member of the Chris Waller stable, races in the same colours as Ozzmosis and is unbeaten in two starts for Baker.
He scored first-up at Rosehill on January 20 then jumped to Stakes level to capture the Group 3 Eskimo Prince Stakes (1200m) at Randwick on February 10.
Finishing behind Caballus that day was Celestial Legend who has since come out to win the Group 2 Hobartville Stakes.
"The form has worked out really well from the Eskimo Prince," Baker said.
"But it's a tough race, 19 runners. Once again, he's going to have to beat them all so we're not getting carried away.
"But I think he is a very nice horse, his work since has been good and he couldn't look any better.
"He is a lovely colt."
Caballus has paid the price for his last start win in Group company, afforded a 2.5kg penalty under the set-weights and penalties conditions.
Baker said he had worked Caballus left-handed but he does not see the straight track or barrier 15 being a concern for the colt.
"We've worked him once and we're pretty happy with him that way," Baker said.
"I guess the straight is a bit of an unknown quantity, but he is a quality colt.
"He should get his chance from out there and Josh (Parr) has ridden particularly well down the straight for us before."
