5:10am - WALLABY CUP | 1800m | | i

Middle-distance horses from varied form-lines take on the Wallaby Cup. VELADERO expected to lead from perhaps CURRAGH down the bottom of the weights at a STEADY tempo. Lots of horses with decent form, CURRAGH weighted to do something on just 51kg and has run OK on a wet Randwick before. JUST SHINE is the scope horse with plenty of upside after an impressive trial win over 1250m. He did enough first-up. CARZOFF a lightly-framed type that could easily show up fresh (check yard and market). Very hard to knock mares KARAVALI and DAGNY, who will be around the mark with their big weights, while VAUCLUSE BAY (doesn't want too wet) and MONASTERIO are in the mix for Waller too. CHATELARD and KING VIV far from hopeless, they have to prove themselves on genuine wet though. [updated 8:47am]
