Can Daqiansweet Junior win the 2023 Melbourne Cup?

DaqiansweetJunior is a 2023 Melbourne Cup runner

The Phillip Stokes-trained Daqiansweet Junior will be one of the horses who is a proven stayer, with all bar one of his wins coming at 2000m plus.

Daqiansweet Junior has not run in the top three of a race since finishing third in the 2022 Group 1 Sydney Cup (3200m).

During his spring campaign, Daqiansweet Junior has not finished any better than fourth at his four starts in weaker company.

Can Daqiansweet Junior win the 2023 Melbourne Cup?

Daqiansweet Junior has been struggling in much weaker competition than what he faces on Tuesday. The six-year-old hasn’t finished in the top three of a race since April 2022 and hasn’t tasted success since his win in the Group 2 Adelaide Cup. He did put in the third best last 200m split in the 2022 Melbourne Cup when beaten 7.25 lengths, so at his best, he could be an outside chance for first four players. However, his three runs this campaign, cannot fill anyone with confidence.
