New rider announced for Vow And Declare
Damien Oliver now has right of refusal over Vow And Declare for the remainder of the Spring Carnival after Craig Williams' decision to partner Surprise Baby in next week's TAB Turnbull Stakes. Williams rode Vow And Declare to victory in last year's Lexus Melbourne Cup and was aboard for the first-up ninth placing in the Makybe Diva Stakes, but has elected to partner the Paul Preusker-trained Surprise Baby in the $500,000 Group 1 at Flemington on October 3.

Smokin' Val ready for the big smoke
Three-year-old South Australian filly Smokin' Val is ready for her biggest test to date when she steps out at Flemington on Wednesday. The Valentia filly was the talk of the town following a breathtaking debut at Murray Bridge when she won by four lengths in near-record time. "We knew she could win, but we didn't think she'd do it quite like that," trainer Jon O'Connor said. "She'd beaten everything of ours at trackwork, so it was nice to see her do it on race day.” A

Stradivarius toppled by Cups topweight
This year's Lexus Melbourne Cup may have a true headline act with topweight Anthony Van Dyck claiming the prized scalp of champion stayer Stradivarius in France's major lead-up race for next month's Group 1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe (2400m). Anthony Van Dyck won his first race since last year's English Derby in Sunday's Group 2 Prix Foy (2400m), withstanding Stradivarius in a drag race down the Longchamp straight by a short neck. Anthony Van Dyck's final 400 metres of 21.64

Doubtland salutes in Danehill Stakes
Impeccably bred colt Doubtland increased his value with the promise of a major pay day for connections drawing closer by winning the $200,000 Group 2 Seppelt Danehill Stakes (1200m) at Flemington on Saturday. Awkwardly placed in the second half of the pack under Willie Pike, Doubtland ($7) burst between runners and stretched his neck with intent over the final 200 metres to win by three-quarters of a length.
