I will be. I really think it's a great chance.

BTW, I watched Brown Panther run away from Mt Athos in the Goodwood. I'll be happy to go against the 15 on Tuesday.

Mt Athos
Absoloute moral beaten last year, couldn't get near the good going along the inside and copped numerous checks.
Finally has a decent jockey aboard.
Barrier 22 won't matter, long straight at Flemington, plenty of time to pozzy up.

I've backed it 14 times over the last 3 months.
Odds of 26/1, 21/1, 16/1 and 14/1.
