Certainly the Geelong Cup has been an interesting proving ground for Melbourne Cup runners in the past, and if the opinion of Greg Carpenter at Victoria Racing means anything to you, he’s given Ibicenco a 1kg penalty for the Cup, and that’s lifted him a little closer to a run.

A look on Sportsbet tells us that Ibicenco is a $67.00 bet as of today, and there’s no guarantee that he will run on the 5th, but that represents a pretty good return if he places, and there’s some history running in his favour.

The record of Geelong Cup winners has been outstanding in recent years in the Melbourne Cup with the three winners and two runners-up from the last eight to contest the race.’ The winners he’s talking about are Americain, Media Puzzle and also Dunaden, who’s a $41.00 bet for this year’s Cup…
