Cox Plate 28/10/2023
East Coast Racing
Not necessarily my favourite track but i love this race and its a very good edition this year.
Many are now on Romantic Warrior almost chips in and at his best I understand this opinion, trackwork reports are he has been going great and has improved significantly post the Turnbull(where he was beaten 4l but ok).May well start pretty short it seems.
Who do we like?
I think Militarize can run a race, can Zac Lloyd the boom apprentice stamp his rep and win the big one, yes i believe it's quite possible.Lloyd has been finding some strife lately in races maybe even getting targetted by his cohorts and overall its fair to say he has been a bit out of sorts whilst getting plenty of top rides.
Up to him now given the big and justified boom the kid has, must continue to improve and rise above the ups and downs no better time to do this than Saturday.It is a MUST to stay one off the fence from the low gate, or could they roll forward? not his racing style and though 49.5 can sometimes see tactics change, i don't think they will go down that road.
Fangirl is in hot form and smoked Mr B do both get a strong 2040m? I see Hayes Inc. have thrown in the hard track card, want the sting out or a good 4 at worst.Track will be a little choppy by then that's for sure but they believe low draw and a track that has more give usually will suit.
Hope Gold Trip runs a cracker but not sure about him after the Caulfield cup? stable reports are he is 100% sweet so it wouldn't surprise if he won and it would be an amazing effort.Might get an ok price too with the heavy support for RW.
Maher has stated he will need everything to go right and i agree back in distance, i actually like him for the big one even with 58.5.Undoubtedly will run well this weekend.
Should be a great race and some good bets present on the undercard I reckon(some are fairly short), hopefully we get a bank for the big one.
Two worthy of mention, R2 Blue Stratum if it gets a run.(watch his jump out, very impressive)
R6 Skybird if their running on she is very smart and that is not a strong group 2 race at all.Micth "Attrition fame" Freedman trains her.

Looks a fairly skinny first leg and 1 out is the way to.go leg 2, so the last 2 legs are where maybe a little value can come to the fore.
In the lucky last whilst Maharba looks very hard to beat i do like a couple at double figures and 20+ bucks respectably for a repeat jag result.
Loose On Gin :D and a speculator the maiden galloper Revalene is the other.
Race 19 of the carnival they should be swooping(hopefully)for an upset.
Mr Brightside barrier gives him every chance to lob in the box seat behind Zaaki & A.Blood
as its debatable can he run strong 2040?.
The colt Militarize last three starts has formed a habit of missing away,which he can ill afford from gate 3
So going for Fangirl from Romantic Warrior
Your Spot on STG Zahra will serve it up to some of these doubtful at 2040m and I'd love it if he won, that Turnbull win was super laying in probably lessened the margin he would have belted them by.
Militarize I still think has x factor definite top 3 chance.
Romantic Warrior
Gold Trip
Militarize
Skinny early quad legs so I'll throw in that visitor Victoria Road(Shinn could jag it him on is the only reason it goes in)Fangirl too could win I suppose & I always discount the Blood so he goes in too making it a 6 legger.
Poor Jamie, she would get beat on Winx atm.
Gold Trip anyone .. ?

Duais stiff arguably could have won if OIlie could have moved to the outside of RW..imagine if he had won, scene's would have been bigger than Super Impose's win 31 years ago.
If your not sure Antino was a moral beat, watch this show.
Was up to $13 all in for the Champions Stakes her next run, I swear they have nearly all been winding her in since earlier today now is as low as $8 @ Tabtouch, bet365 and Sportsbet & $9 at Ladbrokes for the race.There are a couple that probably won't run in some markets.
Anyway Worth a spec at $13 so I had a bet at Dabble again who are still that price.
