Melbourne Cup Best Selection & Value Play 5/11

Nothing screams Australia like Melbourne Cup Day where there’s a public holiday for a horse race! Our analyst has nails down an import that now calls Australia home as the best selection and and Japanese visitor primed to improve 2nd up as the value play.

Best Selection: Land Legend

Land Legend has a sticky gate to overcome but I love what he has done in his 2nd Aus prep. He was a Metrop winner two starts back after making a sustained run. He was no match for the winner but was solid when 6.3L 3rd in the Caulfield Cup. He has looked like a horse that has had improvement to come throughout his entire prep. He just needs to find some cover and settle from the wide gate. There’s enough value to take the risk.

Value Selection: Warp Speed

Warp Speed is one I will back at odds. He was plain in the Caulfield Cup settling at the rear and only passing a few tired ones late but I can see him being a big improver with that run under his belt. He had the 3200m grounding back in Japan in April and will appreciate a firmer deck.
