My take on the CUP - is hard to say something can or cannot win but here goes.
Daffodil - Big query about form this prep, looks like she's beaten average horses. CANNOT WIN
Predatory Pricer - Drawn roughly but if he runs the trip will be a threat. CAN WIN.
Viewed - Track condition (D4 most likely) should suit him to a tea. CAN WIN
Vigor - Pay to forgive last run. Will go forward and be in it for a long way but CANNOT WIN. Could surprise in the Melb Cup
Allez wonder - Nice win last week, if anyone can back up a horse in the Caulfield Cup it's Bart - CAN WIN
Roman Emperor - Ground should suit and placed to perfection by the master. CAN WIN
Master O'Reilly - Up 4.5kg from '07 win & prob not going well enough to counteract weight hike. CANNOT WIN
C'est La Guerre - Will it be wet enough? Probably not. CANNOT WIN
Kirklees & Cima De Trimomphe - Hard to gauge form, but what's left of the Australian brigade looks well below par. CAN WIN
