Caulfield: O’Brien Declares It’s Time

Danny O’Brien is confident Vow And Declare can end his three year drought of not winning with a success in the Zipping Classic.

O’Brien speaking to Racing.Com said that his stayer needed a firm surface which he would finally get with the Caulfield track a Good 4 and with fine weather could be even better on Saturday.

O’Brien said that Vow And Declare’s last two runs where he finished sixth in the Caulfield Cup and tenth in the Melbourne Cup were proof that he was in from.

He pointed out that both of those runs were on soft tracks and he said he needed a wet track to produce his best.



O’Brien said that Vow And Declare also suffered interference in the Melbourne Cup coming into the straight and would have finished closer, He believes that if the Melbourne Cup was run on a firm track he would have finished in the top four. Join Or View Unibet Here

O’Brien said Vow And Declare as well as having won the 2019 Melbourne Cup, which was his last win, had also finished second in a Caulfield Cup which gave him a class edge on his rivals.
TopSport has installed Vow And Declare as a $4 favourite.
