Foreign raiders complete Cup preparations

The international competitors housed at Werribee have had an easy morning ahead of the Melbourne Cup.

The international brigade staying at Werribee has completed preparations for the Melbourne Cup.

The 11 contenders took part in trackwork on Monday morning with none of the foreign raiders out to break the clock a day before the famous race.

Ed Dunlop's pair of Red Cadeaux and Trip To Paris had a canter on the turf as did Aidan O'Brien's two runners, Bondi Beach and Kingfisher.

Easing Cup favourite Fame Game looked bright after cantering on the synthetic track as did Godolphin's Sky Hunter and the Michael Bell-trained Big Orange while Max Dynamite kept up his work cantering the reverse way on that track.

Quest For More tracked Red Cadeaux and Trip To Paris in a leisurely canter while Snow Sky and Hokko Brave also did light solo work on the turf track.
