Jockey Peter Wells says Barlagarney usually has about three good runs a preparation and believes the signs are promising that he has at least one more big race in him ahead of Wednesday's Listed Gosford Cup.

The Graeme Rogerson-trained six-year-old comes into the $150,000 Cup (2100m) after winning his last two starts.

Wells, Barlagarney's regular jockey, was aboard two starts back for his all-the-way win in the Port Macquarie Cup (2000m) on October 9.

But he was unavailable for the gelding's last-start win at Rosehill on October 24 when apprentice Michael Palmer did the steering over 1800 metres.

"He's a horse with limited runs every prep, you only get about three good runs out of him but I think he's got another good one in him," Wells said.

"The horse is well and he might take some catching."

Barlagarney has drawn wide in barrier 12 but punters and Wells are not concerned, with the gelding at $5.50 on TAB Sportsbet while there are three equal favourites - Common Objective, Keepin' The Dream and Spinney at $4.40.

"It's not ideal but it's not a barrier that indicates he can't win the race," Wells said.

"He drew wide at Port Macquarie and won and while this race is a lot harder I think if we can cross early without too much fuss he will be right in the finish.

"He's got plenty of heart and will give it everything he's got, that's for sure."

Rogerson won the Gosford Cup with Break The Barrier three years ago.

Gai Waterhouse will only have one runner in the Cup following the scratching of 58kg topweight Faulconbridge on Tuesday.

Common Objective will be Waterhouse's runner as she chases a record-equalling fifth victory in the race.

Waterhouse's late father TJ Smith holds the record for the most wins.

Five-year-old Common Objective comes into the race after being a $2 beaten favourite at Rosehill on October 31 when he was 6-1/4 lengths second to Kossack.

Near the final 250 metres jockey Chris Munce went for an impossible run between Rollins and Kossack and Common Objective got on to heels and stumbled before Kossack rocketed away to victory.

Chief steward Ray Murrihy told Munce at an inquiry into the race that he was perplexed by the jockey's manoeuvre.

Munce will reunite with the Jim and Greg Lee-trained Keepin' The Dream after the pair combined to win the Group Three Hawkesbury Cup (1600m) on November 5.

Keepin' The Dream cashed in on a massive weight drop when he carried just 53kg to victory, 9kg less than he had in his previous start when fifth to Our Vegas Dream at Canterbury on October 21.

Five-year-old Keepin' The Dream carries 53kg again on Wednesday while Hawkesbury Cup runner-up Spinney from the Peter Snowden stable also lines up and will be ridden by Josh Parr.
