Australia's biggest race enjoys headlines around the world and The Race Guide are excited to bring together the first ever full field of GG Avatar imagery this year. The aim is to bring each runner to life. Alongside the form, each horse's strengths and weaknesses play an important role in determining which galloper will win. The quality of the field is one of the highest in recent years. The 'bomb-proof' Fawkner and dynamic mare Lucia Valentina are both huge local hopes, but they come up against a fearsome group of international raiders. We all saw how dominant Admire Rakti was in the Caulfield Cup and the finishing surge of Protectionist in the Herbert Power. My Ambivalent and Mutual Regard will be on the pace making it a real test of stamina and only the strongest will be there at the finish. Chris Waller is sure to have his stayers in peak fitness, all three representing a big threat, while Darren Weir timed his run to perfection with Signoff, who went to a new level on Saturday. Pick through the runners, find your favourite and get the best value. It's a race that's just too good to miss.
