  • Yes Ashrun was $101 for the Melbourne Cupp, now $34..with Sportsbet. Drops to 51.5kg for the Cup. I guess it's a question of if he makes the final field.
  • The Group 3 Geelong Cup (2400m) today. This race has been a good guide to the Melbourne Cup: for those who like Melbourne Cup trifectas and quartets: since 1999 there has been 9 out of 23 years where the Geelong Cup winner has finished top 4 in the …
  • Spanish Mission has a suspensory injury has been retired....not in Melbourne Cup. Was due to run in Geelong Cup on Wednesday but was scratched. Below - Melbourne Cup Order of entry as of today 24th October...just take out Spanish Mission. I assume …

  • Nonconformist - scratched. United Nations - in
  • Interesting stat in regards to Gold Trip and the 58.5kg he has to carry in the Caulfield Cup.. 17 horses have attempted to win the Caulfield Cup with 58.5kg or more since 1972 - when metric weights were first used. Hyperno (2nd with 59kg, 1980) i…
  • I reckon United Nations is due to win something. Lightly raced stayer. Maybe being aimed at the Melbourne Cup? In the right stable - Maher/Eustace. I saw odds of $201 on Bet365 and $151 on Sportsbet last week for United Nations in regards to the Me…

  • None spring to mind immediately Damien but Incentivise went very close and Verry Elleegant went close-ish the year before(was impossibly positioned to win in that fast run Cup of 2020). What is noticeable lately is a few recent winners of the MC a…
  • When was the last time a horse won their two lead up races to a Melbourne Cup ? I haven't taken an interest in Melbourne Cups for years, so I don't know if it has happened in recent years, but it was never the case that a horse would dominate a carn…

  • Yep that's right.
  • Sorry I'll say it again as I misread it. If a Caulfield Cup winner has Melbourne Cup Weight of 56kg or more than they won't recieve a weight penalty for the Melbourne Cup.
  • New rule in regards to Caulfield Cup winners carrying 56kg or more. New rule introduced either last year or year before (2021). Basically if a horse carrying 56kg or more wins the Caulfield Cup, then they won't recieve a weight penalty for the Melbo…
  • What do you think of its chances PC? I Always respect the trainer but not their top seed I don't think.Being way down in the weights is to advantage. Usually Melbourne Cup winners who have been down in the weights have been good. Future Histo…
