Shut out...Moudre battles to gain Turnbull start

Things are looking grim for Cups hope Moudre...He looks like being shut out of a start in Sunday's Turnbull Stakes and that means he's in danger of missing the Caulfield Cup.

Things are looking grim for Cups hope Moudre...He looks like being shut out of a start in Sunday's Turnbull Stakes and that means he's in danger of missing the Caulfield Cup. Shooting star Moudre is second emergency for the 2000m Turnbull. The winner gets a ticket into the Caulfield Cup on Oct 16. But can he get a run? He needs 2 scratchings. A non-go in the Turnbull leaves him just one more chance to make the CC - a win in the 2400m Herbert Power Handicap at Caulfield a week before the cup. Trainer Ciaron Maher says: 'I knew there was a risk because so many good horses were going to run and that there's not likely to be any scratchings because the race is an important launching pad...I'll just have to hope he sneaks in, or else it's the Herbert Power."
