Melbourne Cup winner Point Of Law and unbeaten Group 1 filly Proxima Dea share favouritism for the 2027 Caulfield Cup, with bet365 quoting the pair at $11 ahead of Purview and Juja Kibo in early betting for the $6 million feature at Caulfield on October 16.
Point Of Law heads into the next spring carnival as one of Australia's most exciting staying prospects after claiming the 2026 Melbourne Cup over 3200m at Flemington on November 3.
The Ciaron Maher-trained colt defeated Zahrann and Juja Kibo under Ethan Brown, completing the Geelong Cup–Melbourne Cup double in his first two Australian appearances and announcing himself as a major force in staying races.
Proxima Dea shares the $11 quote after maintaining her unbeaten record with a commanding victory in the Group 1 VRC Oaks over 2500m at Flemington on November 5.
The David Payne-trained filly has won all six career starts, including the Group 1 Spring Champion Stakes against the colts at Randwick, with her outstanding staying credentials making her a leading prospect for next year's major cups.
Irish-trained Purview occupies the third line of betting at $13, bringing strong European staying form into calculations for the Caulfield Cup.
Prepared by Dermot Weld, the Kingman entire won consecutive races over 2400m and 2000m at the Curragh before finishing third behind Arabian Crown in the Group 3 Kilternan Stakes at Leopardstown in September, followed by another third placing over 2400m at Woodbine in October.
Juja Kibo rounds out the leading four at $15 after a highly successful spring campaign that culminated in a third placing behind Point Of Law and Zahrann in the Melbourne Cup.
The Ciaron Maher-trained gelding had previously captured the Group 2 Metropolitan over 2400m at Randwick and Moonee Valley Gold Cup over 2500m at Flemington, establishing himself among Australia's leading stayers.
Point Of Law and Proxima Dea bring outstanding Group 1 credentials into the early market, while Purview's international form and Juja Kibo's proven staying ability add depth to the prospective 2027 Caulfield Cup field.

Caulfield Cup History
First contested in 1879, the Caulfield Cup is one of Australia's oldest and most prestigious staying races, with a rich history spanning almost 150 years and a central place in the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival.
The Group 1 handicap is run over 2400m at Caulfield, traditionally on the third Saturday in October, and attracts leading Australian and international stayers chasing one of the spring's most coveted prizes.
The historic 150th running in 2026 saw prizemoney increase to $6 million, with $3.3 million awarded to the winner and every runner receiving a share of the purse for the first time.
Long regarded as a major stepping stone towards the Melbourne Cup, the Caulfield Cup has produced several famous doubles, including Might And Power (1997), Ethereal (2001) and Without A Fight (2023), who each captured both races in the same spring.
Legendary trainer Bart Cummings remains the most successful trainer in Caulfield Cup history with seven victories, while Scobie Breasley holds the jockey record with five wins.
The race's honour roll includes celebrated stayers such as Rising Fast, Tulloch, Galilee, Northerly and Dunaden, highlighting its enduring importance in Australian racing.
Without A Fight claimed the 2023 edition before Duke De Sessa triumphed in 2024, while Half Yours completed the Caulfield Cup–Melbourne Cup double in 2025.
Kingswood provided one of the race's great recent upsets in 2026, winning the 150th Caulfield Cup at $26 for trainer Gavin Bedggood and jockey John Allen.
The six-year-old overcame barrier 17 to defeat Saint George by half a length, with international visitor Enfjaar finishing third, adding another memorable chapter to the race's distinguished history ahead of the 2027 renewal.
