Re the question about HK horse's cutting the mustard - in the last 5 years virtually none have come across. One that does spring to mind though is Cape of Good Hope...... goes OK, beat a little horse called Spark of Life (dual Manikato winner) amongst others.

In the Caulfield Cup, if Caulfield track is dry and Confectioner gets a run and a reasonable barrier draw (very important) he is a certainty. Forget the rest, he just wins. Don't waste your dough on others. If you don't believe me, go back and watch the replay of his run behind the Diva the other day. Watch it again. Also, know that in that race he rated 120. Last year, winning the Caul Cup, Elvis rated 119. Year before, Mummify, 118. Confectioner has 52 or so in the Caulfield. Just put your maximum bet on if he's in and the track is dry etc and thank me later.

Wanger97 re Eye Popper, that race was in Japan unfortunately, Expert form don't have ratings on the land of the rising sun.
