Think there's only three winning chances - Ratki, Lucia and Fawkner
I'm going cold on the Japan runner due to the weight and thinking of narrowing down now to Fawkner and the mare

AR and LV basically same weight as they were in the CC. AR was just so convincing so I don't think that .5kg is enough to go cold on him. Just my opinion.

UNCHAIN MY HEART has to jump into calculations on the back of the Dean Yendall factor.

Completely agree, I didn't give AR much of a hope in the CC as I thought they might be a bit brilliant for him over 2400, had him pencilled in as a MC horse because he looked as though he takes a while to wind up on his race replays.
Think the extra distance only enhances his chances and the .5kg for such a big horse won't mean much at all.
Still have distance concerns regarding LV.
I actually reckon she'll beat a few home. Sea Moon and Lidari for starters...
No doubt she'll feel like the winner at the 400 too
next day in the newspaper interviews with jockeys 1st-24th
24th: Unchain My Heart ; Dean Yendall "yeah nah, travelled well thought I was home at the 1200m mark" ……

Time slow in CC due to lack of pace, and sectionals not great. I therefore can't have AR.
You can't have him because the on speed runners got a cheap run and he still came wide and ran them down?
agreed.

I'm throwing the kitchen sink at AR.
Red cadeaux will win, proven over the distance and further, this field is much much weaker than last year. RC ran 3 wide the entire trip last year, was checked at the top of the straight and was beaten a half length... should be 5/1
Not saying he is zero chance but I think he may have missed his window of opportunity. He'll be going round on a 4 wheel walker soon
Forgot to mention he is 20kg lighter than last year, much fitter this year.Not saying he is zero chance but I think he may have missed his window of opportunity. He'll be going round on a 4 wheel walker soon

5th. MA / FWK / Junoob
6th. JNB / Araldo
7th. JNB / ARL / Opinion
Cost of $58 for the 10milli or I can Flexi it

Watch the Caulfield cup, has history over the trip but a class below IMO
