The Big Value: Adelaide Cup

Published: 13 Mar 2016

South Australian feature - Like A Carousel relishes the two miles and heads to Adelaide today

The Adelaide Cup is run today at Morphettville under blue skies, highlighting a card of racing that includes an intriguing Quayclean Matrice Stakes.

It's well documented that Darren Weir loves winning a Cup and he's the one to beat today. Strong staying mare REAL LOVE should relish the two miles and is a short-priced favourite in most early markets. 

Is she too short? Well that’s hard to measure up with form-lines from everywhere. The two good each way bets are UP CUPS (great Tasmanian form) and LUCQUES (big strong stayer, form-lines stack up well), while GO DREAMING and LIKE A CAROUSEL are good odds to sneak into the finish.

And if you're betting in the next race, the Quayclean Matrice Stakes, make sure you check the yard and market to see if RUNWAY STAR is ready to fly.

The Big Value

Bet on UP CUPS at $13 and LUCQUES at $14 each-way
