, Melbourne Cup 2019: Templegate gives his best bets for the race that stops a nation

FINCHE can strike in the Melbourne Cup.

He was an excellent fourth in this last season when up with the punishing pace all the way.

The son of Frankel is back from the same handicap mark and ran well from a poor draw in the Caulfield Cup latest.

Cross Counter was brilliant when winning this 12 months ago and has strong place claims.

It will be hard to follow up with an extra stone on his back but we know trip and track are ideal and he was a solid fourth in the Irish St Leger last time.

Mer De Glace bids to win for Japan and took the Caulfield Cup in style.

He is classy but the worry is getting home on the likely soft ground if the forecast rain arrives.

Constantinople was second in the Great Voltigeur at York before moving down under from Ballydoyle.

He was an unlucky fourth in the Caulfield Cup on his first Aussie start and has every chance of hitting the frame here.

Outsiders can win this and Charlie Fellowes Prince Of Arran looks a fair price.

He was third in this last year and impressed when taking a Group 3 at Geelong latest.

Richard Hannon has a live contender in Raymond Tusk who was fourth in the Ebor when finishing well. He wouldnt want it too testing.
