Well I have been on Apache Cat for along time now for this race and with the appointment of one G Childs for this race I am very happy now there would have been only 2 jockeys I would have been happier to see on him Kerrin McEvoy or Brett Prebble so I guess you could say that I have a fairly high opinion of Childs.

if Excites gets into the field he might be a rough chance to and the other I like is Grey Swallow he could simply be alot better than this lot I wouldn't leave him out of anything your doing for the race. The only negative I have heard against Grey Swallow is that he will be 1st up into this race and noone has ever one a Cox Plate 1st up before well guess what guys no mare had won 2 cups in a row and no horse had won 3 cups in a row, History is there to be changed and records are made to be broken.
