Horsham Cup Betting Preview & Top Tips (485m)
The 2025 Group 2 Horsham Cup Final has undergone some late changes, with Group 1 Temlee winner Tim Zoo and Hotel Whisky One both scratched, shaking up the race dynamics. Their withdrawals leave Flying Zulu as the sole runner for trainer Jason Thompson as he chases a fifth Horsham Cup title. The final still boasts a highly competitive lineup, with a mix of early speed and strong finishers vying for the $40,000 first prize in the 47th renewal of the race. With the field now set, securing a forward position early will be crucial, especially with some runners showing mixed box manners in their heats.
Paw Utility (2) enters as the fastest qualifier after an impressive 26.85 heat win, showing improved early speed and making full use of an inside draw. If he jumps well again, he’ll be tough to catch. Flying Zulu (7) is the proven class runner, boasting multiple Group 1 placings, but his recent box manners are a concern. If he gets room early, he will charge home late. Amron Tiger (1) has been ultra-consistent, placing in his last five, and should get every chance from the inside alley. Zipping Kai (6) is a Group 1 winner over the middle distance, but her chances hinge on timing the start from the middle draw.
