Put 100 on Highland Reel at 26/1 like 4 years ago so if that wins it would be nice,Gailo Chop is a great price,high quality horse,Complacent is capable of a big run and of course Criterion will be right there at the end

Already backed

Highland Reel

Will back


Complacent and Gailo Chop as my roughies

Warhorse

Have to throw the old mate Criterion in there somewhere too,he's flying

Highland Reel (already have $20-1 on him as a future market). Quinella with Arod. I'll have Kermedec/Preferment in for the trifecta. going to leave Winx out due to the barrier.

I think The Cleaner will ruin Highland Reel's chances.

I'm on Arod.. Great form behind Solow. If Arod can slot in behind the cleaner, will be very tough to beat.

The Cox Plate is the best horse race in Australia.

Cannot handicap a champion with 63kgs, and give a same age horse 49 kgs.

Sure MelCup and CauCup great handicaps.

The cox winner is the best horse of spring for mine.

Yeah you could be right there fella,i wouldn't recommend Highland Reel at its current price to anyone but at 26/1 ill cheer the f**ker home and hope for the best

Winx will be fine from barrier 1 with Bowman on board.

Well I'm on Highland Reel at 26's too so you can rule it out :lol:

Cracking race as usual, stacks of chances but I think if the internationals come with their best form they will be hard to beat.

I'll prob chuck something small on my mate Complacement though, after he missed a start in the CC where I had him at massive odds I'd be spewing if he did something here and I wasn't on him.

Apart from that though I might just sit down with a beer and enjoy the spectacle :cool:

Don't think I've found the winner since I was on track in 06-07 during the diva's reign of terror

Good spectacle but hate the f**king track. Won't be burning significant cash on it

Mooney Valley just causes me to drink excessively. Great venue for roughies in Quaddies' though:lol:
