Kris Lees will saddle up the favourite, Attention Run, alongside stablemates Raheen House and Big Duke. Chris Waller also has three in the race, including Rowley Mile winner Savacool.

Free betting tips for 2020 Wyong Gold Cup

Best Bet
Costello @ $23 Sportsbet

We are sensing a boilover here with two horses that can lob at any old odds. David Payne’s galloper Costello looks an unbelievable price at around the $23 mark. He’s never missed the quinella when second up and looks perfectly suited by the rise to 2100m, a distance where he does his best racing. He strung two in a row together last campaign when he got out over a trip, so we expect him to improve drastically. From barrier 11, Robbie Dolan will roll across and get him to relax and work home strongly over the top of the hot tempo. He’s been competitive in the ATC Derby, so he should be ultra-competitive in the Wyong Cup.

Next Best
The Lord Mayor @ $9 Sportsbet

Grafton Cup runner-up The Lord Mayor was given a five-week freshen up before a trip interstate to Queensland for a run over a mile, and he now heads back across the border for this assignment. He should be rock-hard fit now and peaking back up to 2100m. With James McDonald aboard and the Chris Waller polish, he is bound to get every possible chance from barrier two. He is likely to settle a touch off midfield and finish well like he usually does. He should run well again on dry ground and looks right in this at the each-way quote.

Best Value
Paths Of Glory @ $23 Sportsbet

Richard and Michael Freedman’s ghostly grey Paths Of Glory looks very good value here at the $23 quote. Coming off a dominant BM94 win on the Kensington track, he has had a trial in between to ensure he is fit for this task. The former UK galloper is undefeated on good tracks, which he is yet to see in Australia, so he is bound to improve on a Good 4. Rachel King aboard again is a bonus, as she won on him last start, and he is drawn beautifully in barrier three to go forward and box seat. Being by Mastercraftsman, he will enjoy the extra trip. We hope he can get back to the form he showed in the UK, where he won three on the trot in races 2400m and beyond. He is a fantastic each-way play at any old price.
