Melbourne Mail - March 25

It is Mornington Cup day and we’ll go to the main race for the best bet.

Hoping for a big day for Craig Williams Picture: Racing and Sports

This has been a concerted plan by Godolphin to get The Gold Trail from Europe to this race.

With Caulfield Cup qualifying in the mix, Charlie Appleby will have this horse prepared to peak right now.

And given Appleby’s amazing efforts in staying races last Spring, you’d not disrespect him picking the right horse to bring over.

He is used to carrying big weights and has won his last couple so is only on the up being lightly raced.

They’ve acquired Craig Williams to get the job done.

Another Craig Williams ride on the day is Red Is The Rose and she can win the Mornington Guineas.

She led and held on well in the Kewney Stakes and can go leading again as they will want to cross quickly.

This track does suit leaders at the best of times. There has been support for her already even with the scratchings.

Don’t forget to get involved in the Free Racing and Sports tournament on Saturday which is exclusive to site users.
