It is his to lose...

No doubt.

I was hoping Blutigeroo would show more this campaign.

Maldivian does look like a beast and Miss Finland wasn't going to pick him up.

O'Reilly looked nice this weekend too, but it was a different class race altogether.

What has happened to Freedman?

He doesn't have anything resembling a cups horse this year?

Yeah real odd about freedmans bunch, but tell you what he has some really fantastic two year olds this year ,That Exceedingly Good is the Real deal & will only get stronger. Was still hoping maybe better would do something but still nothing,

I got to say this & maybe get shot down but to me Hayes has made some real bad decisions of late, Sometimes a jock just dosnt suit a horse & i dont feel craig williams suits Shrewd Rythim but still craig from day 1 comes out with crap blaming everything but himself & hayes keeps puttting him on with another bad ride on sat how long will this combo piss me off ?

I won't disagree on Hayes and Williams...

Things aren't working out to plan on a lot of the Lindsay Park critters.

I might get shot down as well, but I don't think pointing Miss Finland to the Melbourne Cup is the greatest idea ever.

That thing might make me look stupid in a few weeks, but I don't see her being effective at 2 miles. I think her wins at the Oaks distance were just due to suspect fields and her class prevailing.

i Reckon your pretty much right on the money we just have to go back to last years shocker to see how bad she was & thou she was slaughtered by that female speed snorting freak ( side note ask ed about lisa cropp & the stewards finding speed in her blood ) Miss FinLand was still Carrying a very light weight !!!.

Railings just isn't the same horse in my opinion.

He did win it two years back though.

I haven't seen a repeat of his form that Spring since.

Similar to how Tawqeet peaked last year and picked up the same Metrop-Caulfield Cup double and then went to shambles.

Maldivian is definitely the one they have to beat.

I'll be cheering for Princess Coup though. I'd be amazed if she finished outside the first 3. Go the Princess.

Mayfield-Smith basically told the press he didn't want to win here as he didn't want a penalty for the major goal...The Melbourne Cup.

When they do that, the money stays away. Even the jock will just let him have a good run and put him away I reckon.

I know you probably aren't betting, but if anyone is... Stay away from Maybe Better.

Once Cup time rolls around, you don't want a huge performance or penalty right before the big one.

Especially if you have a true Cup horse, which Maybe Better is.

Oh okay, duh!

And Blue Monday.

And Purple Moon.

And.....

I've landed on Master O'Reilly with the 50.5kg.

I'm questioning whether Maldivian can get the 2400.

They aren't gonna let him go pressure free.

Also firing away at Drac's Back in the seventh.
