Racing and Sports
SO YOU ARE (16) is in a purple patch of form with his fourth straight win coming last time out over 2400m in the G3 Bendigo Cup. Rachel King aboard again and should be in the finish. MR MONACO (22) is racing well, scoring two back in the G3 The Bart Cummings at this track before finishing 0.8 lengths from the winner in third last time over 2500m in the G2 Moonee Valley Cup at this track. Should be poised just off the lead. Best figures should see him run well. JUJA KIBO (11) drifted back from his wide draw last start then hit the line hard to score by half a length in the G2 Moonee Valley Cup at this track over 2500m. Has a formidable combination with Sam Clipperton who has been aboard for his last two wins. Has winning claims on best figures. POINT OF LAW (20) did well to score by half a length first-up in a weaker race last start over 2400m in the G3 Geelong Cup. Won at his only second-up appearance and is worth following up.
Dabble
Expecting a strong tempo in the Melbourne Cup with Wine Dark Sea, Royal Supremacy, Kizlyar and Future History all capable of pushing forward. Enfjaar and So You Are have drawn favourably to settle in the leading division. Point Of Law should be able to find a prominent position from barrier 9 without necessarily having to lead. Future History and Juja Kibo look likely to settle just behind the speed, with Trustyourinstinct, Hopewell Rock and Shockletz expected to be ridden quietly from wide barriers. There appears sufficient pressure from the wide gates to ensure a genuine tempo, which should give the proven stayers and horses with strong sustained finishes their opportunity. A truly run two miles would suit Point Of Law, Trustyourinstinct and Hopewell Rock. Point Of Law appeals as the top pick in a competitive Melbourne Cup, having made an immediate impression with an impressive Geelong Cup victory on Australian debut. The progressive stayer gets into the race with just 53kg, draws favourably in barrier 9 and looks ideally placed to produce another strong performance over the 3200m. Trustyourinstinct is the main danger, bringing excellent international staying form highlighted by his Curragh Cup victory and previous success over two miles. Hopewell Rock appeals as another major chance after finishing second in the Ebor Handicap, with his consistent ratings profile and 54.5kg making him attractive. Shockletz is the lightweight value runner, having won the Archer Stakes at Flemington and finishing second last start. The 51kg is a significant advantage, although the 3200m remains the key query. POINT OF LAW (20) Reeled them in to win last start at Geelong and solid career start. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Stepping up in distance. In the mix. TRUSTYOURINSTINCT (2) Back from a freshen up. Ran 4th last time at Curragh but carrying less weight this time. Producing consistent results this preparation. Jockey James Mcdonald is highly regarded. Up to these. HOPEWELL ROCK (12) Resuming after a break. Right in contention last run at York but racing against tougher rivals. Goes down in weight. Can go on with it. SHOCKLETZ (24) Right in the mix last time here and rising in trip. Goes down in weight. Up against tougher rivals. Worth a ticket.
Timeform (FanDuel)
The 2026 Melbourne Cup. Siding with HOPEWELL ROCK (12) for English trainer George Boughey who has been progressive through the English Summer handicap scene. He gave Geelong Cup runner-up Small Fry 10lbs and beat him at Goodwood before the jockey dropped the whip in the Ebor, beaten a head. He should measure right up. TRUSTYOURINSTINCT (2) fits a lovely Cup profile and looks the pick of the Joseph O'Brien runners. Won the G2 Curragh Cup stylishly two back beating Al Riffa then boxed on well in G1 company. Gets McDonald onboard coming off a 4-timer on Derby Day. POINT OF LAW (20) was awesome winning the Geelong Cup at his fifth start in fast time. He handled that well and if he sees out 2m he's a huge chance. SONS AND LOVERS (1) has form around some top horses in Europe and is very versatile with a turn of foot. Top weight but not poorly off and may have flown under the radar. KIZLYAR (19) was backed off the map in the Moonee Valley Cup, fancy he'll do much better in a staying test.
Best Bets
Pace should be good. You have to go back to 2020 and Twilight Payment to find the last import to win without a local lead-in run and he had been here the year before. So, we'll work around those we have seen. POINT OF LAW was a tough Geelong Cup winner and he drops from 55kg to 53kg. MR MONACO is going well and the chance of a wet track suits. JUJA KIBO is doing everything right. ENFJAAR stuck on well in the Caulfield Cup. SHOCKLETZ looks a great hope with just 51kg. The visitors in this order, TRUSTYOURINSTINCT, HOPEWELL ROCK, SONS AND LOVERS and KIZLYAR.
Matthew Hill
The race that stops 2 nations is the 10 million dollar Melbourne Cup over 3200m. 12. HOPEWELL ROCK is an exciting stayer who hails from the UK as part of the George Boughey stable who know how to travel their team internationally to win the big races. This gelding still has a query over the trip, but gives every indication that it won't be an issue. With luck from a tricky draw, he is weighted to win. 2. TRUSTYOURINSTINCT is part of the Joseph O'Brien army, and he is proven at the trip and handles any track conditions. JMac rides, and he too will only need some luck from his draw to be right in the thick of things here. 20. POINT OF LAW won the Geelong Cup in his first start in Australia since joining the Ciaron Maher stable from the UK. He drops 2kg and is favoured to win. Stick with him. 1. SONS AND LOVERS is a proven international European stayer, who still has a query over the trip. Keep him safe. 6. ENFJAAR was a game third in the Caulfield Cup, and he is a top 4 hope.
Racing Central
POINT OF LAW (20) looks the likely leader, although WINE DARK SEA (8), KIZLYAR (19) and GOODIE TWO SHOES (10) also race on pace, which could ensure a searching test over this staying distance. ENFJAAR (6) finished third in the Caulfield G1 over 2400m on his Australian return and brings strong figures into his second-up run, making him a major threat. SHOCKLETZ (24) was runner-up in a Flemington G3 over 2040m last start and had previously won over 2500m; the 51kg is an advantage for this stamina test. JUJA KIBO (11) comes off back-to-back G2 wins over 2400m and 2500m, the latest at Flemington. POINT OF LAW (20) also won a Geelong G3 over 2400m first-up and may control the race, though 3200m presents a new challenge.
