Can Just Fine win the 2024 Melbourne Cup?
Just Fine will be the lone runner to represent the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott stable in the 2024 Melbourne Cup.
Thanks to his tough all-the-way victory in the Group 3 Bart Cummings at Flemington, the seven-year-old gelding secured his place in the Cup. However, that was only his first win in the last 12 months.
Will Just Fine appreciate returning to Flemington for the 3200m classic, or will that victory just be an outlier in the form guide?

Can Just Fine win the 2024 Melbourne Cup?
Just Fine booked his spot in the Melbourne Cup when running his rivals off their feet in The Bart Cummings (2520m) two runs ago when just hanging on and will look to do lead from the outset once again. He then backed it up with a stinker in the Moonee Valley Gold Cup when failing to beat a runner home. He is proven at 2400m and did win at 2520m two starts back, but the 3200m against some top-class stayers looks a stretch too far for Just Fine in the 2024 Melbourne Cup.
