The horse to beat in the 2025 Group 1 SEN Underwood Stakes
Andrew Slevison • September 19th, 2025 3:30 pm
The Group 1 SEN Underwood Stakes will be run over 1800m at Caulfield this Saturday.
Buckaroo won last year’s edition, beating Huetor and Pericles.
Alligator Blood took out the previous two editions with Zaaki, Russian Camelot and Black Heart Bart the winners prior.
Read our analysis of the race below:
The horse to beat might just be last year’s winner BUCKAROO.
He returned with a promising third at huge odds behind Treasurethe Moment in the Memsie three weeks ago and now steps up to a distance he’s been effective at before.
Buckaroo’s second-up record (7:3-0-1) is rock solid and if he gets the right run then he can win.
Would rather take the $5 on offer than the $2 for favourite SIR DELIUS.
The Melbourne Cup fancy can obviously win this race but he is yet to win below 2000m so he must be a risk here.
MOIRA is the other obvious danger after almost blousing DESERT LIGHTNING at The Valley.
Expect ZARDOZI to improve second-up and she can run a race at nice odds.
