2006 Cox Plate

Saturday's Cox Plate is shaping as a pretty interesting race. I've been on Racing To Win all the way through this spring and I see no reason to jump off. I think he's the best horse in Australia at the moment and a Cox Plate win would prove that estimation.

The field is:
1 Casual Pass N Rawiller (11) 58kg
2 Fields Of Omagh C Williams (7) 58
3 Grey Swallow S King (1) 58
4 El Segundo D Gauci (10) 58
5 Lad Of The Manor D Nikolic (2) 58
6 Honor In War S Arnold (13) 58
7 Our Smoking Joe D Beadman (5) 58
8 Racing To Win G Boss (6) 56.5
9 Apache Cat G Childs (12) 56.5
10 Red Dazzler J Cassidy (3) 56.5
11 Pompeii Ruler C Newitt (9) 56.5
12 Aqua D’Amore K Fallon (8) 56.5
13 Miss Finland L Cropp (4) 46

Fields Of Omagh won the Cox Plate and became the first 9yo to ever win it.
Racing To Win was forced wide all the way and didn't feature in the finish.
