Kiwi challenger is too strong
Mongolian Khan
Mongolian Khan has given master Kiwi trainer Murray Baker his first Gr1 Caulfield Cup (2,400m), using his superior stamina to claim the $3 million race.
Ridden by Opie Bosson, the dual Derby winner scored from the English-trained Trip To Paris and former German galloper Our Ivanhowe in third.
The victory was well received by punters who backed Mongolian Khan into favouritism after his bold third in the Caulfield Stakes a week ago.
