Melbourne Cup 2024 Form Guide

Welcome to what is now my 12th Melbourne Cup preview I’ve posted, previously on TheProfits website and now on the RacingWorldwide website! I love the International fields and the task of finding the winner in this race. Gone is the trend of the low weight Melbourne Cup winner sneaking in with 51.5kg as an international 3YO. Infact, there are none this year after the sensational scratching last week of the one time favourite. Without a Fight (56.5kg), Gold Trip (57.5kg), Verry Elleegant (57kg) and Twilight Payment (55.5kg) have won the past 4 cups. The highest weight this year will be Vauban with just 55kg! That tells you we have a compressed handicap format this year with little between the lowest rated and the highest rated in the race. Have a great day on the punt and good luck!
