Melbourne Cup hopeful Basilinna (NZ) (Staphanos) has been ruled out for the spring.

Racing Victoria announced the news on Wednesday afternoon, confirming the Emma-Lee and David Browne-trained galloper is set to have surgery to remove bone chips from her near fore fetlock.

Basilinna had qualified for the Melbourne Cup for the Pakenham-based stable by winning the Listed Andrew Ramsden (2800m) at Flemington in May.

She had been allocated 51kg for the Melbourne Cup.
