Early Cup Thought
 

Whats everyone thinkin about the cup? (Melbourne that is) Diva looks like she might not start but they might just be smokescreening. I like the look of the French horse Westerner but other than Vinnie internationals havent really performed well for a while. Whadaya u guys reckon

Hi all,

Any of you know how to get the qualification status for CC, Cox and MC?
I like :
For CC : Confectioner and Grey Song
Cox : FOO and Lad of the manor
MC : Xcellent, Grey Song and Confectioner.

As of today...

Hi Matilda,

Conditions for the major races can be found at .......

www.racingvictoria.net.au

As for the current order of entry, no lists have been posted to my knowledge.


dundas lane ..............

Caulfield Cup: Tick By

Melbourne Cup: Accumulate/Diva if she runs

Cox: Ace

Cox: Makaybe Diva
CC: Perlin. If Plastered is fit should grab this easy.
MC: Westerner

Good luck

Have a few multis on already, most I'm sure will be dead come race day , but the receipt always looks good showing ridiculous odds. My favourites I put with some roughies were Makybe Diva and Grey's Inn for the Cox Plate, Confectioner and Dizelle for the Caulfield and Xcellent and Plastered for the big one. The Cox Plate should be a great race but I don't think Makybe Diva shows great value at about $3 at present. Fields of Omagh at $9 should go well. Wondering if anyone else thought Stormhill could figure up there in either the Caulfield or MC?

As far as sydney stayers go, stormhill, railings and high cee are the pick og the crop IMO

Thanks Dundas Lane,

There is a ballot in CC and Mel Cup but not in Cox. Can the ballot be use as a guide?

Matilda.

As a rough guide. The club can include/exclude at their disgression. They left out Free at last last year which caused a huff. Also a few races allow horses excemption from the ballot so that can chane the ooe.

cheers

VOUVRAY for one of the silverware races.
