Can Sea King win the 2024 Melbourne Cup?
Sea King will represent the UK in this year’s Melbourne Cup, with the Harry Eustace-trained gelding already tasting success in Australia heading into the first Tuesday of November.
The son of Sea The Stars couldn’t have been more impressive in the Group 3 Bendigo Cup (2400m) to earn his place in the race that stops the nation, however, will it be enough to claim victory in our greatest race?

Can Sea King win the 2024 Melbourne Cup?
Sea King could not have been anymore impressive when saluting in the Bendigo Cup and on the six-day backup cannot be dismissed in the Melbourne Cup. Harry Eustace has had this race pencilled in a long way out for this son of Sea The Stars and the ease of which he disposed of a strong Bendigo Cup field has him right in the mix on Tuesday. Barrier one is a slight concern considering how keen he was underneath runners on his Australian debut, but if Hollie Doyle can have him one off the rail as they leave the home straight, Sea King will be in this for a long way.
