Past 40 Years - Trainers to Win Multiple Melbourne Cups 5 - Bart Cummings 5 - Lee Freedman 2 - Joseph O'Brien 2 - Dermot Weld

all hinges on the handicapper..i reckon, miss the cc and go for the cox and then the mc. As the Turnbull Stakes is a Set Weights Plus Penalties race, the winner (Gold Trip) can not be given a weight penalty for the Caulfield Cup or Melbourne Cup.

Looking forward to watching the G1 Arc De Triomphe at 10:05pm (Perth time), run at Longchampe. The Arc is one of the best races in the world and one of the best 2400m races in the world - weight for age as well. Good prize money too, the race is wor…

Amelia's Jewell takes the track record (1600m) for Moonee Valley. An easy win in the G2 Stock Stakes. Surely a Cox Plate is the aim? Good for WA racing.

@thefalcon Cox plate all the way baby. Shes the best horse in Australia. And the cox plate is hers to lose. How is she the best horse in Australia? Talent wise she may be but she is yet to do it.....we hope she will.

See Chief Handicapper (David Hegan, Racing Victoria) and reasoning for the weights https://www.racing.com/news/2023-09-19/news-watch-cup-weights-announced?fbclid=IwAR0vCTJ7GKpXjWoSAy0QHsO__86zoUpO8VsVf4R9p4gX2TWZmSG6Ytfdzzk

That WA horse Alaskan God ran well in the G2 Feehan Stakes to get 5th.

Melbourne Cup winner Gold Trip - great run late. Carrying 62kg, race 7 at Moonee Valley.

I would of thought Rogan Josh deserved a stakes race in WA named after him. By stakes I mean a Group/Listed race.

Absolutely terrible news. Very sad. Thoughts with Dean's family and friends during this terrible time. R.I.P Dean.
