Note: The above diagram is our opinion on how the horses will “settle” after approximately 200m of the race.

Race Speed: EVEN
The European’s will ensure a genuinely run cup in the absence of any local front runners.

How they will settle.
Mahler will make use of the inside gate to lead and expect Tungsten Strike to keep him honest in the mid part of the race. Sculptor should get into a nice spot, and Eskimo Queen should get to the rails. Douro Valley and Princess Coup should get the gun runs just off the pace. Zipping may be fortunate enough to get cover from his wide barrier if they hang back a shade at the start. Master O’Reilly and Blue Monday will get time to find their feet. Purple Moon and Gallic will be sweeping home late.
