15 of the last 30 Sydney Cup winners have been produced from the Chairman's Quality, which includes Circle Of Fire, who completed the winning double last year.
At $2.70 with Ladbrokes, Alalcance heads the 2025 Sydney Cup market.
Zardozi ($6) finished fourth in the 2024 Melbourne Cup, which was her only attempt over 3200m and the Godolphin mare has placed in her last three starts.
The four-year-old has won since taking out Phar Lap Stakes in March 2024 and four Group 1 placings have been accrued since that 1500m victory.
Circle Of Fire ($9) is aiming to be become the sixth horse in history to win multiple Sydney Cups, with Tie The Knot (1998 and 1999) the last horse to achieve this.
The five-year-old carried 51.5kg in the 2024 edition (has 55kg in 2025) and he did cover ground when winning the 2024 Sydney Cup.
Circle Of Fire is trained by Ciaron Maher, who has prepared three of the last five Sydney Cup winners and he's aiming for a hat-trick of Sydney Cup victories in 2025.
