2020 WS COX PLATE – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Grandslam looks the likely leader, rolling along in front with Magic Wand the one most likely to press the issue. The bar plates came off ARCADIA QUEEN (9) at Caulfield and she exploded, returning to her very best for the first time since the Kingston Town back in 2018. Dominant display, powering home in blistering late splits off a steady tempo, and looks ready to go to a whole new level now.

RUSSIAN CAMELOT (11) was no match at all for her speed there but he won the Underwood like a really good horse and is still one that can be improving. So too is Irish visitor ARMORY (12) who brings a world class piece of form to the table via the Irish Champion Stakes where he ran third to two of the best in the world with the Arc winner back in fourth.

Another visitor, ASPETAR (6), arrives off a peak of his own and has a chance. York win worked out well. PROBABEEL (13) did well to land the Epsom and while this will take better again she has a nice profile off that, following four-year-old mares to win this through the Epsom - Dane Ripper, Sunline, Pinker Pinker and the great Winx. Not dismissed lightly.
