Old-timer Bauer - he's a 9YO now - is ticking over nicely in his bid to secure a start in the Melbourne Cup. He's been galloping well and he tackles the Herbert Power on Saturday.

He says: 'He worked well and he seems to have arrived in really good condition...The horse on my outside was fully tested and I could have gone with him, but he's racing Sa
Old-timer Bauer - he's a 9YO now - is ticking over nicely in his bid to secure a start in the Melbourne Cup. He's been galloping well and he tackles the Herbert Power on Saturday. A win will probably earn him a penalty and lift him into Cup qualification. Damien Oliver rode him in a trackwork hitout this week and was pleased. He says: 'He worked well and he seems to have arrived in really good condition...The horse on my outside was fully tested and I could have gone with him, but he's racing Saturday so I kept a bit in reserve.'
Craig Williams is delighted with French raider Dunaden. He was aboard for a track gallop on him and says: 'I love the way that he lengthened, he's a really nice horse. He's got Americain form, Manighar form, he's got good horses all around him.'
