Can Future History win the 2023 Melbourne Cup?

Future History was forced to sustain a long run in the Moonee Valley Gold Cup and despite only going down late, looks a genuine each-way play in the Melbourne Cup. The six-year-old gelding showed his tactical versatility when settling at the rear of the field and making a long run. Prior to that, he was a dominant all the way winner in the Group 3 The Bart Cummings when booking his spot in the Cup. British gun hoop Hollie Doyle comes over to take the ride and from barrier 13, we expect she will have Future History settle outside Serpentine throughout. He looks to have plenty of upside and is rock hard fit heading into the Melbourne Cup. He is a genuine first four hope and Future History is certainly in the right stable to cause a major upset.
