Could Without A Fight join Racing Fast and Might And Power as a Cups and Cox Plate winner?

Fight's shot at racing history

Without A Fight could get a shot to join Rising Fast and Might And Power as winner of the Caulfield and Melbourne Cups plus the Cox Plate if his 2024 spring campaign goes to plan.Co-trainer Sam Freedman recently visited owner Sheikh Mohammed Obaid to deliver the Cups and said the Cox Plate is high on the agenda after discussions held in Dubai."We would love to win all three," said Freedman, who trains Without A Fight with his father Anthony, of the possibility of adding the Cox Plate to this spring's haul."He has the speed to do that, he has shown fresh in a campaign he can do that."WATCH: Without A Fight win the Melbourne Cup<div>&nbsp;</div>Without A Fight won the Lord Mayors Cup over 1800 metres first-up in the autumn and was an eye-catcher over the same distance in the Underwood Stakes this spring.With Legend Of Dubai, Third Realm and Dubai Poet, along with a number of unraced horses in the stable, Freedman will graciously receive any more horses from the owner's overseas contingent."Sheikh Mohammed Obaid owns 80-100 horses over in the UK, regally bred horses, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't watching every single one of them run and push for certain ones to come out here," Freedman said.Without A Fight is a $15 chance with Sportsbet to win the 2024 Cox Plate.
