Verdict

STAY HUMBLE (7) on top in the iconic Dunkeld Cup. He brings the most reliable recent profile, with a BM62 win over Sarapo followed by a third at Geelong in BM70 grade when beaten half a length as favourite. He drops right down in the weights here and will be hard to run down. FOUJITA SAN (2) is the major threat after running second in Saturday BM80 company at Caulfield, beaten a length by In'Kantosstar at big odds. He now finds easier company, has sound 1 ?m credentials and should be ready third-up. OVERPRICED (10) is the in-form improver, coming off BM66 and BM62 wins at Sale and Warrnambool, both by half a length, with Sheridan Clarke staying aboard and an improving profile. DUBAI WATCH (8) has to rebound from a Cup Day failure, but the wide run gives some excuse and his previous BM70 win at Geelong, where he did beat Stay Humble, keeps him in the winning mix. NAVY KING (6) was better up to a mile last time and can improve again, not discounting.

Stay Humble silk

Has held his form very well, winning a BM62 at Geelong from Sarapo before a close BM70 third there when beaten half a length by Dubai Watch as favourite. He did some work wide last start and still fought it out, which adds merit to the performance. Consistent and will roll forward to take plenty of catching.

Foujita San silk

Returns off a five-week let-up after a much better second in Saturday BM80 company at Caulfield, beaten a length by In'Kantosstar despite being at long odds. That was a clear lift from his Mornington BM84 run, where he was slow away and never a winning factor. Easier company and 1m form make him a major player.

Overpriced silk

Arrives in winning form after leading and holding off Mount Sabyinyo by half a length in a Sale BM66, following a similar Warrnambool BM62 victory on heavy ground. He has put together three wins and three placings from nine starts overall and is particularly effective on wet tracks. Sheridan Clarke sticks and the winning form is hard to knock.
