Leading hoop finds his Voice Brett Prebble says Forgotten Voice will win Wednesday's Geelong Cup and expects him to be tough to beat in the Melbourne Cup. Forgotten Voice is one of the few outside rides the Hong Kong-based Prebble has been able to attract since returning to Australia for the spring to work with the Lloyd Williams team - and he is ready to make the most of it. "He'll win," Prebble said. Forgotten Voice stretches his legs. A key member of the Williams team, Prebble will probably not be able to ride the eight-year-old should he make it to Flemington, with Williams potentially having six runners in the race. But he left no doubt where Forgotten Voice sits as a Cup prospect, despite missing out on the Caulfield Cup when first emergency. "I wish he got in the Caulfield Cup," Prebble said. If he got in that race and drew a gate, who knows. He definitely deserved a place in that race. His work with Dandino before it was outstanding and that other bloke ran a super race. It wouldn't surprise me if he is a horse that gets through the Geelong Cup and runs well in the Melbourne Cup. With any luck in running he will be winning [on Wednesday]. The raiders have made a habit of winning the Geelong Cup and following up with success in the Melbourne Cup, starting with Media Puzzle in 2002 before Americain and Dunaden did the double in recent times. Punters agreed with Prebble's assessment as Forgotten Voice was backed from $3.60 to $2.80 for the Geelong Cup. "Even though he is a jumper from over there [in Europe] they just want to back him," Sportingbet boss Michael Sullivan said. They wanted to back him in the Caulfield Cup when he was an emergency and they just think he will be far too good for them at Geelong. Forgotten Voice was beaten in a Novice Hurdle during the Grand National carnival at Aintree and returned to the flat to win at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood, two of the biggest meetings in England. His win in the Glorious Stakes over 2400 metres at his last start on August 2 earned him a trip to Australia - and it particularly impressed Prebble. "Wednesday will tell the story whether he has the quality to win a Melbourne Cup," Prebble said. On his European form, he looked impressive winning. He couldn't have done any more at his last start. He put them away quick. He showed a good turn of foot inside the 400 and was strong to the line. When you look at his form, he has been over the jumps and you wouldn't think he would have a turn of foot, but he does. Forgotten Voice has to win at Geelong and get a penalty to be assured a place in the Melbourne Cup. He has 52.5 kilograms in the Cup, which Prebble called a winning weight. "I think 52.5, 53 would be a luxurious weight and it is a winning weight for him," he said. Prebble, who hasn't been able to get make a big impact during the spring, will be back riding for Williams in Saturday's Cox Plate. "It is a lot harder to get rides here," he said. "There are more horses than jockeys and I'm only back for a short time, so I'm not going to ride for the big stables," he said. I have my rides for Lloyd and the team is going great, but it is good to get a ride like this one from outside the team.
