By Michael GuerinJosh Aiken has heard all the theories on how Hectorjayjay can down Kiwi pacing hero Lazarus in the A$400,000 Victoria Cup. But even the aggressive young Aiken doesn't hold much hope of that actually happening. "It would be nice if it did but to be honest I can't see us getting in front of him early," said Aiken. Backing Hectorjayjay to beat Lazarus won't feel quite as comfortable in that scenario, especially as no horse has ever run past Lazarus in a race. Making money off the Kiwis won't be easy but the best value option is Sunny Ruby in the Dullard Cup.
