SIR DELIUS is lethal at the trip and likely conditions, tactics will be crucial from the draw. ZAHRANN will be tough to reel in, while COSMIC CRUSADER demands respect. TECHFORM’S TOP 5 4 Cosmic Crusader 100 2 Sir Delius 99 13 Saint George 93 11 Buckaroo 91 5 Aeliana 91 RICHARD TURNBULL Richard Turnbull (1875-1951), a Victorian pastoralist with extensive interests in Central Western Queensland, served as a committee member of the Victoria Racing Club for more than a quarter of a century from 1925, Vice Chairman from 1938, Acting Chairman 1939, and Chairman from 1942 until the year of his death. With Sirius (1944) he was the first incumbent VRC Chairman to own a Melbourne Cup winner. His filly East End won the 1942 VRC Oaks. The VRC renamed its October Melbourne Stakes in his honour in 1948. The Turnbull Stakes was elevated to Group 1 status in 2006.
