Early oil for Geelong Cup Day
Geelong plays host to their biggest day of racing on Wednesday, with the Group 3 Geelong Cup highlighting a cracking afternoon.
The Geelong Cup winner automatically gains a start in the Melbourne Cup and the race has a decorated history, having been won by the likes of Media Puzzle, Americain and Dunaden.
The Cup is well supported by two listed races, the Geelong Classic for the three-year-old's and the Dark Pearl Stakes over 1200m.
The track is rated a Good 4 and the rail is situated in the true position.

Geelong Race 6 Tip #4 Rousseau $8.50
The son of So You Think rises to 2200m for the first time in his career for the Geelong Classic.
Over the mile at Bendigo last start, he was well defeated by Ultimate Edition who lines up favourite for this race, but can turn the tables today.
He was forced to sit last from a wide barrier in that hit-out, before running home well into third.
The colt has drawn perfectly in barrier 1 for this clash and will settle on-pace, allowing him to be well within striking distance on turning for home.
Master trainer Chris Waller would have sent this colt to Melbourne with a staying target in sight, so it's fair to assume this galloper is set to peak for this.
He'll relish the 2200m and at the $8.50 quote, he's over the odds.

Geelong Race 7 Tip #2 Ashrun $4.00
The son of Authorized has the superior staying form of this field.
He gets the Andreas Wohler polish and has star hoop Craig Williams to ride.
The French-bred galloper been working the house down at Werribee and I suspect he'll be too good for these.
He's drawn gate 10 which won't pose a problem, given his racing pattern is to settle towards the rear and run-on.
Expect him to charge home over the top of them and book his ticket to the Melbourne Cup.
