Magic Millions Cup Tips

One that runs around at massive odds in the Magic Millions Cup is the Toby and Trent Edmonds-trained CADOGAN and the six-year-old can give them a scare.

The local hope is on the back up after finishing 3rd in a weaker assignment last weekend over the 1200m but tends to save his best for when he is third up and wasn’t too far away in this race last year.

In last year’s edition he was trapped out wide for much of the race before sticking on well for a narrow 4th to Redouble.

He has raced well without winning since then and drops 5kg on his latest run, while he has also drawn to get a nice time of it from barrier 4.

At the $51, he is well worth a throw at the stumps.
