hey hey

been away for 3 months and havent seen any of the racing, but i thought we should get a thread going for the cups + cox. basically....i want some tips :laughing:



i am going to back roman emporer fixed odds for both cups tomoro morning......hugh bowman is going down to melbourne tomoro to ride the emporer, even though there are 4 group 1s in sydney. he doesnt want to miss a ride becoz this is his cups horse, and wants to be on all campaign......thats good enough for me


any other horse impressed so far this spring?

Hope you got on Roman Emperor at those odds mate. Run was pretty decent and looks like it wants the extra 4 furlongs.

Great ride by Rawiller on Viewed....

I notice Efficeint is at 41 for the cox plate but 6 for the cup.

Is it such a different race that he would have no chance in the cox???

Totally different race mate.

All the best horses run in the Cox Plate. Rarely get a donkey that wins this race as the VRC have the right to withdraw horses. Some people are saying its one of the weakest in years but they say that every year about the Cox Plate.

Whobegotyou looks to have it at its mercy. Speed Gifted is being well supported.

Have you seen its record at the Valley which has undone plenty of better horses over the years.

4 starts. 4 wins.

Its proven as much as Heart of Dreams.

As I said MV is more of a specialist track. I wouldn't be surprised if El Segundo figured in the finish with its record at MV. I think Fields of Omagh didn't win a race for 2 years before it won the Cox Plate at MV...
