Best Bet
Valiant King – 51kg – Barrier 10
He’s the complete Melbourne Cup package — a Bart Cummings winner who ran an elite third in the Caulfield Cup, screaming for the two miles. He maps to stalk the speed, gets in at a featherweight, and has the turn of foot to explode when it counts. Every bit of his prep has been aimed at this race, and he looks ready to cash in. He’s the one they’ll have to beat.
Value Bet
Torranzino – 51kg – Barrier 18
This lightly weighted improver is flying under the radar after a dominant Geelong Cup win. He’s peaking perfectly, has the right profile for Flemington, and brings a sharp sprint for a stayer. The draw isn’t ideal, but if he finds cover midfield, he’ll be charging late at double-figure odds. He’s the smoky with genuine knockout potential.
