Mummify
 
Looks like connections are going to scratch Mummify and race it in the Cox Plate due to the barrier draw. A decision will be made early tomorrow.

Scratching because of a bad draw? Man, thats ordinary. Reminds me a bit of G Ryan's whinge before the Slipper re Snitzel's draw.

How would you feel if you were an owner of one of the borderline horses that just failed to make the field?

Even if it is scratched which i think is a poor decision it still does not make a difference to the horses that missed out as i guarantee there will be 18 horses that leave the barriers tomorrow when they burst open!

I agree guys, if they do scratch it i will be extremely disappointed.

Here is an article I just found too:

Owners ready to pull plug on Mummify start
14oct05

A MEETING of owners today will determine if Caulfield Cup (2400m) topweight Mummify lines up to try to win the race for the second time tomorrow.

Mummify's senior part-owner Mark Pegic said the 2003 Caulfield Cup winner had drawn poorly and trainer Lee Freedman had advised them not to start in the race.

Freedman said a decision would be made tomorrow morning and many factors would be considered.

"They (the stable) think we are a lot better off going straight to the Cox Plate and in light of the circumstances that could be the way to go," Pegic said.

"We are going to get together and decide what's in the best interests of the horse. He's getting a bit older and the gate is not ideal."

Mummify has 57kg and has drawn gate 20 with Danny Nikolic listed to ride.

Nikolic's availability will be clarified today when he makes an application to the Racing Appeals Tribunal over a 25-day ban and $30,000 fine for not giving Activation every chance in a race.

Mummify is expected to lead in the Caulfield Cup and speed maps for the race will change dramatically if he does not run.

There was an interview with Lee Freedman on the radio this morning. Sounds like they'll probably run him.
