News 
Cazoo St Leger winner Eldar Eldarov has been ruled out of the Melbourne Cup but connections are pondering another run this season. If he does appear again it will be a clash with the established staying stars in one of the final Group One contests left in the division.
“We’ve ruled out going to Melbourne and we might look at the Long Distance Cup at Ascot or the Prix Royal-Oak at Longchamp,” trainer Roger Varian told The Punter.
