The 2015 renewal of the Geelong Cup is shaping as a strong one possessing a number of genuine chances.

A capacity field lines up in the event where on latest form, Dandino is the deserved favourite.

The entire has been superb this campaign and last start was prominent throughout when fourth in the Turnbull Stakes.

It was a bold effort where he travelled wide with no cover throughout yet still had the audacity to be fighting out the finish, beaten just a length.

Dandino drops in grade 17 days later where he lines up as one of the class runners in Wednesday’s Group 3 Geelong Cup.

The son of Dansili should be around optimum fitness at this stage of his campaign and trainer Darren Weir has applied Blinkers first time for the import.

After the encouraging display he produced when ridden more positively, expect Dandino to be prominent in transit again.

A value player is Orbec who makes his Victorian debut off a solid fourth in The Metropolitan.

The son of Le Havre while yet having won this campaign, is yet to put a foot wrong, fighting out the finish in each of his four outings.

After three straight placings this campaign, Orbec was sent out in a bid to make all at Randwick over 2400m in The Metropolitan.

Full credit to trainer John Thompson, the Randwick trainer has placed Orbec beautifully through his latest campaign and has done so again on Wednesday.

The French import is poised just above the limit weight and should enjoy all of the favours in transit from barrier 1.

His current double figure quote appears mighty tempting.

Bonfire heads to Victoria after finishing sixth in The Metropolitan.

The six-year-olds two runs this campaign have been solid and should be open to further improvement early in his campaign.

He has drawn favourably and is another who is expected to be prominent.

It should be noted however the son of Manduro meets Orbec worse at the weights for a one length defeat to the China Horse Club-raced entire.

Quest For More makes his Australian debut and warrants plenty respect despite there being obvious queries surrounding the son of Teofilo.

A wide alley hurts and the five-year-old’s best form to date has come over two miles.

Guardini is another worth watching.

The German Group 2 winner makes his stable debut for Lee and Anthony Freedman and brings with him some excellent European form.

Those wagering on this afternoon’s Geelong Cup appear to have a couple of appealing wagering options.

They can either with a deserved favourite in the form of Dandino or roll the dice at double figure odds with the John Thompson-trained Orbec.
