Melbourne Spring Racing Odds: Jockey Tommy Berry Tips Dan Excel

August 20th, 2014 by Pom de Turf

We’ve said before that there will be a little bit of spice added to the Melbourne Spring Racing Festival added by the international flavour of the field, and that’s particularly true of the Cox Plate, with the addition of Dan Excel, a real star making the trip from Hong Kong, and a horse that jockey Tommy Berry is already tipping for success in the race…

A look at the Racing odds for the Cox Plate will tell you that Dan Excel is right in the running with the early favourites, with odds of $15.00 beside his name on Sportsbet as of today, and he’s a horse who very much deserves to be up there. He has tasted a good deal of success in Hong Kong and Singapore, and he’s going to be a real chance in the Cox Plate. Berry knows what he thinks of the talented 6-year-old: ‘he can travel and win. I think he’ll enjoy his break in the paddock and come back better than ever.’

And it could be that Dan Excel is Berry’s own ticket to a taste of success in the Melbourne Spring – the jockey will be targeting the Cox Pate and a ride on Dan Excel as a possible win for him: ‘spring is certainly in the air. It’s not far away now. The spring is something that’s eluded me at the moment – I’ve ridden Group 1s all around the world – but Melbourne’s one place where I really want to get that last one up and I believe I can do it this spring.’ So look out for the name Dan Excel in amongst those Racing odds for the Cox Plate in particular, and the Melbourne Spring in general – follow the link for more!
