Fabulous 6YO stallion who has had the perfect preparation for this years Cup after being runner up last year when making his Australian debut. Raced without luck in the Turnbull Stakes here at Flemington before being caught wide for the first half of the Cox Plate when a very brave third. He will get a perfect run from his favourable draw and the distance holds no fears.
BEST VALUE: (10) FAWKNER:
Sometimes the obvious seems to escape the crowd and this is certainly the case with Fawkner. He was the strongest of all runners to the line when winning the Caulfield Cup and his record here at Flemington is exemplary. Trained by the modern day Cups king at Macedon Lodge and he looks well over the odds at 19.0
