Anyone have any idea whether this beautiful horse is on track for Melb again or is he out/gone/spelling?
Can't seem to find anything on web...excuse my ignorance if I've missed anything obvious.

They originally wanted run Royal Ascot but he didn't run well enough to warrant.

Still on track to come for Melbourne Cup.

thanks guys...heard he ran (no win?) a few months back.
Would he be in work? I wonder?
 18 weeks to go?
The handicapper just can't hurt him.
2 in a row. off we go

Thanks for that link mate......
I'll be watching him carefully...I reckon he could do it again, so dominant was he  in last cup.
A huge hulk, I can't see the likely 2 kgs or  3? he would get stoppin him at all...if ever there was a horse that could carry weight over two miles he could.
When do markets get framed? If I can get 20's I'm on!

The big fella, who shat on SYT, is definitely coming....quarantine sorted, listed race first next Tuesday then another G2 then off to Aus!
The most beautiful athlete we saw last year is a real danger to do what only a few have done, and that is win multiple cups.
He was so dominant last year, if he is on his game then I can't see em beating him.
Controversial claim pre spring I know, but this fella has the same magnificence as the Diva, when he gets out to a distance.
Different horses and styles etc but I'm talkin bout the'unquantafiable vibe' of the horse
I love him.

The big fella won first up over 2500m in France on Tuesday.
Don't say I didn't tell ya biggrin
A handicappers horror horse..17 hands plus and fluid as any of em....will require 60 kgs plus to slow him at all!!!!
A second cup on the way.
PS why am  the only one here to love this guy? don't ya see what I see? do ya see what I see? (sung ..thanks to Hunters and Collectors)
He is very special as a stayer this guy, very very special.
Only the diva had her cups in the bag 800 out like this guy did last year.
28s now into 17s odd on betfair, now favorite. Must be other good judges out there somewhere......

Radio this morning talked about how he might even try to do Cox Plate/Melb Cup double.(instead of last year Geelong Cup/Melb Cup)

That would put him into some pretty lofty company

One thing is for sure; should he win the CP the 16.0 or whatever on offer now will look very attractive
