Here's a run down on the contenders in the Royal Ipswich Cup run over 2150m.
I'll be attending tomorrow, hope the rain stays away. Will try to take a few pics. 1 Our Lukas has won the last 2 Cups but was in much better form last year. 3 Cups in a row would be a dream. He's unbeaten on track so that may help his chances.
2 Mr Clangtastic rang a nice 2nd behind Shootoff 2 starts back but then was btn by 22L.

Loves the wet.
3 Shuffle The Cash was a slashing winner at Eagle Farm & not a bad effort over the 2400m last time. He will be a popular pick, only concern he got beat as odds-on shot at a mid-week at Ipswich.
4 Spechenka won the Summer Cup at Randwick last prep & had 2 runs in this time.
5 Gold In Dubai won a 2000m race at Flemington in May which should throw him into the finish.
6 The Hombre only btn 3.5L in Doomben Cup so must be in the firing line as well.
7 Little Stranger is an 8yo who has been racing OK, maybe a couple L off these.
8 Teary Eyed has won 3 over dist & not a bad effort last start btn 3L at Doomben.
9 Arcenciel been racing in NZ, now trained at Sun Cst. Won by 5L at Sun Cst over 1600m & Munce stays aboard. ????
10 Danagaze has some OK city form & has been stepping up by furlong each run.
11 Warrior Within has been btn over 10L last 2 runs at 100/1+ odds.
12 American Gangster was btn 10L behind STCash & has not placed 3 runs on track.
13 General Mackjosh btn 10L & 8L recently at Casterton.
14 Patmoss ran 6th at Gatton btn 6L last start, hasn't won at 6 Ipswich runs.
15 Rambling On need to improve on efforts at Wagga & Eagle Farm when 50/1.
