Big Energy did big things on Friday night at Sandown Park. Back-to-back Shootout’s and his fifth sub 29 second run over the 515, it comes as no surprise that Phoenix slot holders have come calling to Team Greenough.

Kel Greenough jumped on RSN this morning with Andrew Benlsey to discuss all things Big Energy.

"The times (that he is running) suggest that he's pretty similar to what he was last year, which is very unusual," co-trainer Kel Greenough said.

"It's like a Scotty Pendlebury winning a Brownlow at 36."

Melbourne Cup heats are the direction Team Greenough is taking with Big Energy.

Fields are expected to be released around midday on Wednesday.

When pressed about a Phoenix slot, Greenough confirmed talks are being held.

"Without saying too much we have had a bit of interest in the dog. We certainly thinking about that situation."
