Big Race Preview · Monday 7 September
Stephen Welch's Big Race Feature
The Hughes Cup at Perth on 7th September 2026, scheduled for 2:20, appears to be a competitive event. With only two declared runners, the race is likely to be a tactical affair, with the jockeys potentially dictating the pace from the outset. Both horses have shown form that suggests they are capable at this level, and their respective odds indicate a close contest. The small field size often leads to a more deliberate early pace before the sprint for home begins, demanding a strong finishing effort from whichever horse takes the initiative.
