The Ciaron Maher & David Eustace-trained Interpretation is one of the final qualifiers for the 2023 Melbourne Cup.

The four-year-old has long been aimed towards a start in the great race, but his recent form has suggested he might be up against it in a race like this.

This son of Galileo is a natural front-runner, so will need to find the front early on.

Can Interpretation win the 2023 Melbourne Cup?

Interpretation broke a massive run of outs when claiming a weak edition of the Bendigo Cup. His form prior to that was only average and was beaten 3.4 lengths in The Bart Cummings. He was held up for a run that day, so the run might have been better than what it seems on paper. However, barrier 17 will mean he will need to roll forward in a field like this and he looks almost certain to be trapped wide, or be forced to work too much early on. He didn’t see out the 3200m last year and we are unsure if Interpretation is capable of doing it 12 months later.
