High Emocean a step closer to Melbourne Cup start

High Emocean won the Group 3 Bendigo Cup on Wednesday. She is now eligible for a rehandicap and a place in the Melbourne Cup. Harry Coffey has been riding High Emecean at her past three races. He is hoping to take her to the 2022 Melbourne Cups. The forecast for the race is bad. The horse likes to be ridden cold. It was the second win in succession in Bendig for Coffy after taking honours on Wentwood 12 months ago.
