WFA has no relevance to weights carried in handicaps.

58kgs over 3200m is a lot different to 58kgs over 1600m.

In the past 30 years only one horse has carried 58kgs or more to win the Melb Cup - Think Big in 1975. Yet plenty of horses have carried 58kgs to win a Doncaster.

Vinnie Roe has no chance of winning with 59kgs. The King couldn't do it with 59kgs so there's no way a foreign horse could.
