You would think he will get a small penalty which would be enough to make the Melbourne Cup field now.

Bet365 Geelong Cup (G3)

WT: 54.0kg Type: OPEN

Prince Of Arran followed his return to Australia when second in the Herbert Power Stakes (Gr 2, 2400m) at Caulfield on October 12 with a good win here. He went forward from his wide barrier (11) and settled in second place, tracking the leader (Haky) at a good tempo. He moved up approaching the home turn, took the lead at the 200m and then held on for a good win in a solid staying effort. The Willie Mullins-trained mare True Self settled back in eighth place, on the rails, improved between runners rounding the home turn and then came with a strong late bid for second in a really good run at her Australian debut. Haky went to the front, increased the pace in the mid-stages and then held on well for third after running a bold race, while Red Cardinal was back in tenth place before making ground along the rails for (2.1 lengths) fourth.
