2026 Doomben Cup Betting Tips

Half Yours is a five-year-old who is going to go off favourite to win the Doomben Cup. The horse ran well last time out despite finishing ninth at Randwick. That was in the competitive All Aged Stakes over seven furlongs, with the McEvoy-trained charge having previously obliged at Caulfield and Flemington to really stake his claims.

In the former race, the 6/4 favourite was able to score in the Sportsbet Caulfield Cup where a strong test of stamina was on display over one mile and four lengths. That came before that Melbourne Cup success over two miles. Sent off at odds of 8/1, the horse obliged by nearly three lengths on good to soft ground and he looks the one to beat here.

Pride Of Jenni is an older adversary who hasn't tasted a victory in the previous four races although the horse did run well each time. There was a win in the TAB Empire Rose Stakes at Flemington back in November before struggling to make an impression a week later. The latest effort came at Randwick where a midfield effort was recorded over a mile.

She's A Hustler can't be easily dismissed, with the horse returning to the track after registering a fourth-placed effort at Randwick in April. That came after a success at Caulfield back in November, with the 21/10 favourite obliging over one mile and four furlongs. Birdman and Idle Flyer are other ones for the shortlist and it should be a thriller.
