DaqiansweetJunior is a 2022 Melbourne Cup runner

The Phillip Stokes-trained Daqiansweet Junior will be one of the horses who is a proven stayer, with all bar one of his wins coming at 2000m plus.

Daqiansweet Junior ran third in the Sydney Cup back in April of this year, however, that is the last time that he has finished in the placings.

During his spring campaign, Daqiansweet Junior has not finished any better than seventh at his three starts.

When will Daqiansweet Junior run in the Melbourne Cup?

The Melbourne Cup will be run on the first Tuesday in November at Flemington in front of a sold out crowd for the first time since 2019.

The one thing that hasn’t changed about the 2022 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.

Daqiansweet Junior has never raced in the Melbourne Cup in his career and the 2022 edition will be his first attempt at winning the 3200m feature at Flemington.


Can Daqiansweet Junior win The Cup?

The form that Daqiansweet Junior brings to the Melbourne Cup this campaign just isn’t good enough to take out the Melbourne Cup. Despite finishing third in the Sydney Cup on a Heavy 10, he has only been placed on one other occasion from eight starts on rain-affected ground in much easier races than this. With a Heavy track expected, Daqiansweet Junior simply cannot win.
