This week's Winning Post will be available online from 3pm Thursday AEDT here.

Hard to believe, but the first Australian Group 1 for 2025 is here already.

Caulfield plays host this Saturday to the C.F. Orr Stakes, with a top-quality field led by teh great old stager Mr Brightside (pictured). 

Elsewhere on the Caulfield card, the two-year-olds have their final tune-ups in the Blue Diamond Prelude, the three-year-olds tackle the Autumn Stakes, the fillies match motors in the Peter Le Grand Stakes and the older sprinters duke it out in the Rubiton Stakes.

At Randwick the features are the Eskimo Prince, the Lonhro Plate and the $2 million Inglis Millennium for qualified two-year-olds.

There's also black-type racing at Morphettville (Premier's Plate) and Ascot (Cyril Flower Stakes).

Our form coverage kicks off on Friday with a full guide to The Valley plus fields/colours/tips/overviews for all the other TAB action.

The metro racing this Saturday is at Caulfield in Melbourne, Randwick in Sydney, Morphettville in Adelaide, Doomben in Brisbane and Ascot in Perth.

Winning Post carries full-colour liftout guides for all those meetings plus bet365 Yarra Valley (Vic/SA edition), Kembla Grange (NSW edition) and Gold Coast (Qld edition), as well as fields, tips, ratings and/or colours for other TAB Saturday cards.

On Sunday we've got liftout formguides for three more TAB meetings (plus Hobart Cup day in the Tassie edition) as well as fields, ratings, tips and colours for a stack more Sunday and Monday programs.

Don't forget Winning Post now carries trackwork reports for four Victorian training tracks, three in Sydney, Morphettville in Adelaide and a general Brisbane report.

Away from the form, we've got news columns from NSW, six Victorian districts, SA and Tasmania.

Our readers have their say on page 4, while further back in the book Shane Templeton reminisces, Paul Richards presents his unique take on the sport, Tony Kneebone brings you his Snippets column and Number Cruncher delivers the stats that matter.
