Gee, I fancy UP in the Melbourne Cup.

No hype this year and I feel this has been his target from day 1 of this prep. However, I am concerned that he will start in the cup on a light preparation. The maximum racing metres in his legs, to my way of thinking, will be about 8000.

His maturity has made hime more dour and I believe that this is his best chance of winning a major handicap.

If there is no repeat of last year and he jumps - he is in it with a huge chance
