Circle Of Fire holds the call with Ladbrokes.com.au for the Sydney Cup (3200m) this afternoon at Randwick.
The Ciaron Maher trained stayer toughed it out best to win the Chairmans last Saturday and gives every indication that 3200m will be no issue. He is favourite at $5 with Aussie bookie apps.
Best tried to beat him has clearly been Athabascan, into $6 after opening $11. Ashrun is a point further back, both coming through the Tancred.
