11 -18 CAUL m Sat 17Oct26 6.6L 2:28.21 Rtg 113 Relatively lightly raced part-owned by Australian Bloodstock, Wine Dark Sea was touted as a possible Melbourne Cup contender off a smart all-the-way win in the Group 3 Geoffrey Freer Stakes (2715m) at Newbury. Beat Dubai Honour there and was well fancied in the Caulfield Cup off that win but faded into 11th as an $8 chance after being caught up in the mid-race move. No horse this century has won the Melbourne Cup directly off such a poor run in the Caulfield Cup but Warp Speed (13th) did run second in 2024.
