Marasco is no certainty to run in the Cox. Kersley considering other options.

He thought it would win the Cox plate, and would also win the Caulfield if it raced. That was good enough for me...

Had some as well. Broke a 12 year old track record easily beating Vengeance Of Rain (no slouch) in a Gr 1 over 2400 at Shatin, Hong Kong in June this year. Have also backed in the CC.

Trainer Greg Eurell has just announced that he hasn’t ruled out a start in the Cox Plate for Apache Cat.

A bit of a turnabout as Eurell was adamant after last year's failure same race, that he would stick to feature races up to 1600m in the future, for Apache Cat.
