I didn't think Fields of Omagh was up to a Cox Plate he is one of the biggest cats i've seen (actually a v good horse but i hate it). However once they're in the stalls its just like any other race and roughies do get up. I'm sure the Jockeys will start their runs on the backmarkers early however this in turn forces them to go very wide into the straight this is where the leading pack can pinch a break and a lot of the time its a racewinning one.
