Mastery in the Breeders cup marathon is their best chance.

Gayego has been in good form and did just fine last out at SA, so I think he should have a shot in the Sprint. This could again be a huge field, so the draw will be important.

I thought Delegator would be a big player in the mile last summer, but his last was disappointing. I still may use him a little bit.

I really liked Buzzword in his last, and while 5th, he was not terrible.

Godolphin had such a poor start this season, but then had an unbelievably strong late summer. They seem to be tailing off a bit though so it is a bit difficult to judge their stable right now. The races where they have multiple runners may give a bit more of a hint of which they feel is the better runner by who they put up on the horses.

Having bought up some of the best racing stock for the last umpteen years shouldn't we expect Godolphin to win its share or more? They invaded Britain, next stop Amerca.

kirklees and cime de triumph could be hanging around. no news on others but my pick is VIGOR. he came out of the widest post and ran huge in the caulfield cup. he needs a better post because i belive hes warming up at the right time.

Changingoftheguard from the aiden obrien stable could be showing up.

Not with o'brien anymore he was sold to David Hayes. He had a slight injury a couple of weeks ago and missed a prep race so is going straight to the melbourne cup.
