He was 13's this morning on TAB, I took at little bit more after the draw, and he started dropping at 10am when the outlets opened.
Got to love smart phones and betting at work.
Still 12's on bet365

I think Tanby should win the Geelong Cup, but too short. I've been looking at bit closer at I'm Jake, think there's a lot to like about him, some pretty decent form lines.

Anyone give Kings Rose a chance for the Cox?
At ~$17/4.50 and having drawn well behind the speed, a winner over the trip and at the Valley I think she's an okay each way chance.

Think at the relative prices Kings Rose is a much better bet than RI checka.

It's really a "below average" Cox Plate field, well without the assistance of hindsight it seems that way.
I'm really hoping one of Helmet or Jimmy win the race, because at least then the hype around one of these horses will have been granted, and they will probably go on and be rated as top class WFA horses.
Most years the Cox Plate winner is the best horse of the year, yet with Sepoy, BC and AJ out there, unless something remarkable happens I can't see it being so this season.
I've loved the Cox Plate, it's been my favourite race each year, I'm just praying for a star to be born on Saturday.

Eagle Command in the Classic and Red Eye Special each way in the Cup. Not hammering either though.

I wouldnt call it a weak Cox Plate, its a pretty decent field in my opinion without a super star. Caulfield Cup winner, Two Vic Derby winners, melbourne cup winner, Epsom winner, Caulfield Guineas winner, NZ star, Shamrocker won the AJC derby and oaks too didnt it? Thats just off the top of my head but if you went through the field it is pretty high quality

The field just about always has those winners in it, but I guess I'm asking where's the "star".
In recent years we have had So You Think, Makybe Diva, Northerly, Sunline and Might and Power.
I'm just wondering if there's a super star in this lot.

If those sort of horses were around every year they wouldn't be superstars.
They would just be a stock standard top liner.
Im really hoping Helmet gives them a hiding. He can be the next big WFA horse. We have BC and Sepoy but they are sprinters. I reckon the public would love Helmet too.

I reckon his odds are approaching lay of the year territory.

It's at least in the territory where I will consider laying off for a free bet @ $6 odds

I think it's hilarious all the money coming for the horse purely on the back of a track gallop beating Jimmy Choux comfortably.
So what!?
Nothing against RI but foolish to bet on the basis of trackwork!

This is my hope also. Cox Plate winner deserves to be a champ and if he continues his improvement (providing he continues racing), he'll be a star.

Over 1200 which is all the trackwork was, RI ran a 2nd 1st up so he's very talented over shorter distances too. I'm not writing him off but wait til they feel the pinch 400 out over 2040, we will see the real Jimmy knuckle down to the task.

Why not at least ensure you break even if he runs top 3?

He was pretty impressive winning the Vase at this track and distance last year, not sure why you think he'll puncture.
