Key Replay: Moonee Valley Gold Cup, October 25 2024, Moonee Valley, Good Surface
This is why I want to pen him, and with confidence. He led, at his own steam, and tried to roll, get them chasing, but when asked for the effort, he found nothing and was very plain late, suggesting that the win prior in the Bart Cummings took it out of him.
Final Summary: Gritty win in the Bart Cummings but I think that took it out of him based on the Moonee Valley Cup run where he led and was a tired horse on the turn. He will lead them up and give a sight but will be out of tickets a fair way out.
