Still in doubt...Ah, the wheels of government and racing's officialdom grind slowly...The SMH reports: 'The Japanese may have to wait until 2011 to make another bid for the Melbourne Cup, with further quarantine issues clouding their return this spring...' Racing Victoria chief executive Rob Hines fears bureaucratic red tape will thwart the first Japanese tilt at the race since they quinellaed the event in 2006 with Delta Blue and Pop Rock. Protocols to approve quarantine facilities in Japan are far from finalised to enable a Japanese horse to arrive in Melbourne in August to prepare for the 150th running of the Cup in November.
