The withdrawal on Friday of Silent Achiever moved Kelinni to 23rd in the Cup order of entry but Saturday’s Lexus and Mackinnon winners gain automatic entry.
Waller said he would prefer not to run Kelinni in the Lexus (2500m) which was the race that propelled him into the 2012 Cup in which he ran fourth, but was still considering the situation late on Friday.
“It’s 50-50,” Waller said.
“He would have to win the Lexus to ensure a start and I would rather not run him tomorrow.
“If he doesn’t get into the Cup, so be it.
“We’ve always got the Queen Elizabeth Stakes next week.”
Waller has until 7.30 on Saturday morning to make the final decision on the Lexus.
Kelinni’s performance in last year’s Cup gave Sydney’s premier trainer a taste of what it could be like to win Australia’s most famous race.
He has Hawkspur and Foreteller safely in the field and Mackinnon Stakes winner Moriarty just outside the final 24.
Kelinni’s preparation was interrupted by a slight bout of colic in September but Waller was boosted by his ninth in Caulfield Cup, less than three lengths from the winner Fawkner, which showed he was back on track.

----- Precedence-----
So
it appears that it all depends if Ruscello runs. If Ruscello runs then
Precedence misses out but if Ruscello doesn't run then Precedence get's a
run in the Cup.

about Precedence making the field and the chairman said that the only
way Precedence could of made the field was that if any horse above him
was out of form.
So ask me this.........
How Ethiopia make
the field when his best result has been a fourth in the Lexus Stakes
this campaign and also Ethiopia has not won since April 2012?
Precedence has won twice this year - more then Ethiopia. In fact Precedence's last five starts has been two wins (at Group level) and one second.

All trainers and owner know the conditions. The connections of Precedence decided to gamble on entry by not running today. They lost.
If Precedence was trained by anyone but Bart this would not be an issue.
