Power rankings
1 - DEAUVILLE LEGEND
Apparently lost no weight on the flight, hope he gets up for the thousands of people who have him at 100-1 on Betr.
2 - DURSTON
Like that he can settle, relax and pounce off a tempo. Has the turn of foot to contend in an average year.
3 - LUNAR FLARE
Didn't...
Yeah it's hard to see Rodrigo getting in at this stage, from number 31.
I think you can confidently take Great House and Crystal Pegasus out and that's it. I wonder where else the attrition will come from? Gold Trip? Point Nepean? I'd love to see Realm of Flowers get in.
Have they do all the...
Only Great House is a confirmed out from that lot as for as I know.
Numerian wouldn't run 2 miles down a well, still going here, Point Nepean's going like a busted, Lloyd will probably run him anyway.
I thought that was the case too, but I saw this article on Racing.com this morning.

10 - EL BODEGON
11 - ELLIPTICAL

As one of about a gazillion owners in Team Captain I welcome this attrition rate. Sad to hear about Spanish Mission though. He was one of the only reliable stayers there.
Not poking my head out here but I'd probably take:
Anamoe - proven
Zaaki - past his peak but consistent/tough
My Oberon - obligatory international.
I don't mind the idea of a Top Ranked or Fangirl coming out of an Epsom with a different formline to these. I have serious distance doubts on half...
