What are the chances of Australia's best stayers such as Efficient, Viewed and Shocking racing in Britain's greatest staying race, the Ascot Gold Cup?

How would they do if they ran?
 
The same way that English raiders go in our Cup. The races are run totally differently over there. Plus it is a 4,000 metre race.

Plus the Ascot Gold Cup is not worth much money.
 
The Australasian horse with the best chance to win the Ascot Gold Cup would be Efficient.

Probably the best horse in Australia as show in the Turnbull.

If it was sound it might have won 4 Melbourne Cups by now.

Maybe Lloyd can take it over to England where the rules of racing are a bit more relaxed.

I think it would blow them away and win the Ascot Gold Cup by many lengths if Yates is retired.

But Lloyd tends not to have that as his goal and wants to keep Efficient around his Macedon property as a pet rather than race him.
