Hi Jeff. I'll do the form on the other races Cup day when it's clear what the weather is doing. The new Flem. has great drainage but heading for a slow for sure. Rail out 2m.
I was very surprised how true the track ran on Sat. Lets hope it can stay half-decent. I had MO marked down as a certainty in the Cup, but now with a slow track looming I'm a bit worried about the weight impost after the CC.
I've had a really good look at the Cup form and for almost all of them it's terrible really except for MO and Duro Valley for this. Getting outside of the hype and coldly looking at form, the horse that has missed all the hype and stands out is Dolphin Joe.
Decent form this prep. [beat the Fuzz 3 starts ago at Flem.], light weight and ran a 2nd. over the cup distance in the slow at Sandown last prep. Sandown form is great form because it's a tough track and a big track. Has been looking for the 'slow' too .
