Guaranteed Caulfield Cup and Melbourne Cup Runner ????
After our success last year with Protectionist in the Melbourne Cup we want to this year not only try and win the Cup but have a good crack at winning either the Cox Plate along with the Caulfield and Melbourne Cup again. With the recent success of Europeans and the dollar working against us- its now clear to buy horses who are legitimate chances to win these races that $2m plus is needed and beyond the scope of most people. The horses who meet the qualification rules are therefore becoming too expensive and not worth the risk / reward equation. As an example a recent German Group 2 winner who is a nice horse just sold for $2m AUD plus and in our opinion his not good enough to run top 3
Therefore we are turning our focus to horses who have the ability to win these races and who meet certain criteria. As an example stride length, sectional times, and biomechanic models and algorithms that we use can now accurately predict horses that are Group 1 horses in the making but are horses who haven’t reached that level . However instead of buying them once they are exposed but qualified we are seeking expressions of interests from people who might be interested in investing into horses that we can buy immediately and then aim to qualify them by racing them in races that will ensure they become Guaranteed Runners. The theory here is we only have to spend about a third of the price to buy the same calibre horse that is selling for $2m AUD . The intention would be to qualify them in Europe and bring them down in the horses in training sale. To buy these Group 1 horses before they become exposed we still have to spend around $600 to $800k but if we do this we are supremely confident we can find some horses who will be genuine Group 1 horses in Australia

Rekindling won the Melbourne Cup in a dramatic finish that saw Joseph O'Brien tip out his legendary father, Aidan O'Brien, as both Irishmen chased their maiden victory in the great race.
Aidan O'Brien, who recently saddled a world-record 26th Group 1 winner for the season, and who extended that mark when Mendelssohn won at the Breeders' Cup meeting last weekend, looked certain to add the Melbourne Cup to his honour roll when Johannes Vermeer cruised into the lead. But his Caulfield Cup placegetter could not withstand his son's more lightly weighted Rekindling, ridden by Corey Brown, in a finish that echoed the legendary drive to the line in the 1984 English Derby at Epsom, where David O'Brien's Secreto became the only horse to defeat his legendary father Vincent O'Brien's superstar colt El Gran Senor.
The remarkable nature of the finish continued with Max Dynamite, the 2015 runner-up to Prince of Penzance, saddled by Willie Mullins, finishing third to complete an astonishing Irish-trained 1-2-3, while Lloyd Williams, who owned the first two over the line, was winning a record sixth Melbourne Cup.
Big Duke finished fourth ahead of Nakeeta, Scotland's first runner, while Williams' Gallante finished last.
Joseph O'Brien, who switched to training after weight curtailed his career as a champion jockey, as which he won a string of top races for his father including the English Derby winners Camelot and Australia, described the winning feeling as 'right up there with the best of them'.
'I can't believe it,' he said.
'I am thankful to Lloyd and Nick [Williams]. They suggested to bring him down and he would have a good chance in the race.
'His preparation went really good. Corey gave him an unbelievable ride. Everyone, the lads that have been down here with him have done an unbelievable job. All the lads at home, all year round, have done a great job with him. I can't quite believe it. This is unbelievable. It hasn't sunk in yet.'
Winning owner Lloyd Williams described his sixth Melbourne Cup winner as 'an absolute dream'.
'I can't put it into words to be perfectly honest. Just to do it with this [24-year-old] ... he has been taking the world on. I thought that this horse had some chance and I thought that his run in the St Ledger was good, and his three-year-old form over there has been very good.'
Corey Brown, who won the 2009 on Shocking, said he had 'chased the ride [on Rekindling] about six weeks ago and with a light weight [thinking he was] a big chance to get on him ... I can't believe it.'
The victory marked a welcome return to the big time for Brown, who has been re-establishing himself since returning to Sydney after a lengthy stint in Singapore.
