Brett Cavanough isn't wasting any time with his plunge winner Bossdon City, the opening fav for the Blue Diamond Stakes at $8.50 (15/2). After his impressive win at Rosehill last Saturday, he will back up in Saturday's $250,000 Inglis Classic before heading to Melbourne. BC says: 'Saturday's run took its toll but I have had a good look at him and he will be fine...I don't have to do much with him, he will have a canter on Thursday and that is it...If he was a filly I wouldn't go to Melbourne, bu

Peter Moody is geared up to pay a $55,000 late entry fee to get Golden Archer into the Blue Diamond. Golden Archer, impressive winner of his only two runs, was going to be the nominal early BD favorite but his absence from the noms was a shock. Moody has 10 paid-up second acceptors. PM says: ''He wasn't nominated but he'll run in the Preview and the Diamond is where we are headed with him.' A win in the Preview will have Golden Archer on target to win the $1 million bonus from race sponsor Patinack Farm for any horse who can win the Blue Diamond and a Blue Diamond Preview/Prelude.
