Arapaho Information
Thought he was cast prior to Bendigo…he might still be cast, but he was the sneaky good run in the race and we saw that sneaky good run at Bendigo win the race last year. Could I back him to win? No. But I can see him sneaking into the top ten.

Key Replay: Bendigo Cup, October 29 2025, Bendigo, Good Surface
I know it wasn’t a Grand Final for him, but purely looking at this race for what it was, the ride from Rachel King was a howler. Inside was red hot and despite drawing gate one, she elected to come the widest on the turn to make her run. The horse actually did a really good job.
