Can Carif win the 2021 Melbourne Cup?

The Peter & Paul Snowden-trained Carif is one of the rank outsiders in the 2021 Melbourne Cup field. Having won three races from 37 career starts, the son of So You Think is one of the least credentialed runners in the field, having not won a Group race in his career. He was last seen being beaten 12.81-lengths in the Listed City Tatts Cup at Randwick and we think he will struggle against this lot.

When will Carif run in the Melbourne Cup?

The Melbourne Cup will be run on the first Tuesday in November despite all the COVID-19 chaos, but without the huge crowds that normally grace Flemington on Cup Day.

The one thing that hasn’t changed about the 2021 Melbourne Cup is the horses.

Once again The Cup has brought together an elite field of Melbourne Cup horses to contest the two mile race for $7.75 million.

Can Carif win The Cup?

The Peter & Paul Snowden-trained Carif looks to be severely out of his depth here heading into the 2021 Melbourne Cup. In 17 attempts at Group level he is yet to claim a win, with just one win in Listed company to his name. $201 with betting sites is a fair price.
