| Shocking scratched from Australian Cup Melbourne Cup winner Shocking has been scratched from the $1 million Australian Cup at Flemington for the second week in a row after a foot abscess flared up again on Friday. Trainer Mark Kavanagh had been confident that Shocking's off-fore hoof had healed and he would be right to start on Saturday, although he did qualify that by saying that such ailments "can flare up again" which is exactly what happened. Kavanagh said Shocking would be spelled thus missing the Sydney autumn carnival. The scratching of Shocking, who had been $7 equal second pick with Zipping behind the $6 favourite Heart Of Dreams, forced a reshuffle of the TAB Sportsbet market. Heart Of Dreams has firmed to $5.50 top pick with Zipping at $6, Miss Maren and Sirmione at $8, Barbaricus at $9.50 and Extra Zero next best at $12. |  |
