Does anyone give Dizelle a chance in the MC? I thought its run in the CC was good! Do you think it will get the 2miles?

I have it down to three at this point...

Hi Northern,
Have a few roughie on the list. Art Success, Demerger, Dolphin Jo and Vanquished

I was a fan of On A Jeune but I just don't think it is racing well enough to win. A couple of starts back, Zipping beat it convincingly with 0.5kg more weight and although it has been racing with some pretty heavy weights lately, it hasn't done much IMO. The Geelong Cup formline has been pretty good in the past so you would have to think mandela would be up there as well as Tawqeet and i think Vanquished and Kerry O'Reilly are probably the best roughies at this stage.

The Japs lost the war, but they might win the cup this year with the poms making sure it won't be a sit and sprint affair, our horses will be struggling at the distance with the slightest hint of pace on. We can produce good sprinters but [genuine] stayers here are a thing of the past it seems.

The Aussie class is going down the plug hole with 9yr olds winning the cox [what a slow race that was]. Perhaps a few decent horses should come out of retirement to give the cup a bit of polish [?]

Apparently, Wunderwood has broken down this morning and has had to be put down!!!

At the moment these are the one that I like in MC.

Will see how to go down later....

Delta Blue or Pop Rock with a preferences for Delta Blue are my picks this year [I'm often wrong:-) ] regardless of what else qualifies.

Not a bad batch Radar67 but I'd be adding DELTA BLUES & POP ROCK ;)
