Road To Rock earned a timely career-high rating from trainer Anthony Cummings after winning the Sportingbet Gold Cup at Caulfield.
As he prepares for a Group I weight-for-age assignment in the $1 million Australian Cup, Road To Rock was also contemptuous in winning by more than three lengths.
“It was easily his best win, a dominant win, and he will improve again,” Cummings said.
“We are looking forward to next week.”
Road To Rock takes his place in the Australian Cup field on the back of successive wins and jockey Damien Oliver says the four-year-old won’t be out of his depth.
“Taking on a horse like Theseo is going to be hard but they are a pretty even lot behind him and Road To Rock is up there with them,” Oliver said.
Road To Rock will be following in the hoofsteps of one of Australia’s modern greats in the Australian Cup.
Northerly is the only horse in the last 15 years to come through the Sportingbet Gold Cup, better known as the Victoria Gold Cup, and win the Australian Cup.
Road To Rock is a $10 chance for the Australian Cup.
