Luv2bet the comments in the paper this morning from Bart saying he doesnt want to lead and he wants a soft run tomorrow so the horse is cherry ripe for the melbourne cup makes me feel this is just another lead up race to the race he is actually being set for. I still think he is the best horse in the race but taking $1.50 for a horse in the cox plate who hasnt been set for the race might be asking for trouble.
