2024 Cox Plate Form Guide: Two Words on Each Runner

The countdown to Australasia’s weight-for-age championship is on, and below punters can find our exclusive Races.com.au two-word Cox Plate 2024 form guide.

There’s a lucrative $5 million in prize money up for grabs as well as the honour of winning the second of the ‘Big 3’ spring majors as we prepare to declare the latest Cox Plate champion on Saturday at Moonee Valley.

Chris Waller’s recent Turnbull Stakes winner Via Sistina is a huge hope and early Ladbrokes Cox Plate market mover despite her mishap when getting loose and kicking off jockey James McDonald on Tuesday morning.

There are two international raiders led by Japan’s Prognosis who sits top of the latest Cox Plate odds online at Ladbrokes.com.au to go back-to-back for the visitors following the 2023 win by Hong Kong’s Romantic Warrior.

Punters are also coming for the Godolphin-raced three-year-old Broadsiding racing third-up and fit and the always honest Mr Brightside lining up for his third straight Cox Plate attempt.

To help racing fans separate the genuine Cox Plate contenders from the potential pretenders in the prestigious showdown, below is our succinct summery of each horse’s winning (or losing!) chances.
