JAMAEA is untried down the straight but relishes this trip (8:3-1-2). GENERATION looks ready for the rise in distance.
RISING FAST (NZ) (Alonzo (GB) – Faster (NZ)) This New Zealand champion came so close to becoming the first horse ever to win the Caulfield Cup–Melbourne Cup double twice in succession. He won the Caulfield Cup in 1954 and 1955 and the Melbourne Cup in 1954 before being beaten into second place, carrying 63.5 kg, by Toparoa in 1955. And Toparoa carried 15.4 kg less on his back. Today’s race previously honoured Chatham, champion miler and middle-distance horse of the 1930s, son of the 1925 Melbourne Cup winner Windbag. Chatham won two Epsoms and a Doncaster at Randwick, a Cox Plate, and at Flemington he twice won the Linlithgow Stakes.
