A LEADING Albury Gold Cup chance was a last-minute casualty when the 2013 Albury Gold Cup field was finalised today.
Melbourne Cup-winning owner Lloyd Williams did not accept for top chance Practiced, which was due to be ridden by Craig Williams.
Local chance Niblick will carry the top weight (58kg) in Friday's $170,000 listed event.
The David Hayes-trained international import, Auld Burns, appears set to be one of the favourites, despite drawing an awkward barrier (13).
