Racing: Melbourne Cup winner Delta Blues and stablemate and runner-up Pop Rock are likely to head to Hong Kong to contest the Cathay Pacific Hong Kong Vase in December.
Just a day after dominating Australia's most famous race, connections are already planning to take the pair to Sha Tin for International day on December 10th.
David O'Callaghan, the Australian representative of owner Katsumi Yoshida's Shadai Farm establishment, said that the horses would return to Japan before attempting the mile-and-a-half feature next month.
"We're looking into that at the moment, generally the thought is we go back to Japan for the moment and then we go back to Hong Kong," he said.
"That's a definite possibility. They're suitable races. It depends on how they are at the time. The 2400m race, the Vase, is where we're looking at."
