In the book "Cup Day" by Cavanough & Davies published 1960 the Authors cover all the cups to 1959 won by the Queensland owned stayer Macdougall and they set out what they think the winners rate in a suggested order of merit,with the qualification that many may disagree.These are the top 26 selections Carbine Phar Lap The Barb Malua Peter Pan Poseidon Poitrel Newhaven Windbag Prince Foote Rising Fast Grand Flaneur Comic Court Dalray Merriwee Artilleryman Briseis Patrobas Delta Martini-Henri Comedy King Auraria Chester Sasanof Hall Mark The Trump

Unfortunately they look like hopping camels in the run.

Gin that is what a Great rider does, when you are on a "good thing" you ride them like a good thing, George Moore always said if you can go around them then that is what you do, to try to take inside runs on a horse that can travel wide is stupid and risky in saying that I have not seen this race, very little interest

It was a bit of fun. I felt sick in the guts when the mare was storming down the outside

Phar Lap Carbine The Diva Lost it after that. It was not that much of an event unless you had the tri in your bottle top--$150k .

$100 would be big overs I reckon - I think Peter Pan ran 4th.

Talking with Lettsy last week he assured me the outcome was a "surprise winner".
I woulda thought PL was a shoe-in, personally.

They just had a replay on CH7. They were true to form on one aspect. The Diva got the sweetest ride you'll ever see AGAIN  Near last on the fence approaching the turn & magically eases out into the clear to charge down the outside  Sure G Boss would be proud of that ride

For those that missed it:
Couldn't be too dissapointed with the top 5 (Rising Fast 5th).
Beadman on Saintly needs a good talking too - FFS did he think he was on Zipping or something?
