Strong gallop for Wicklow Brave at Geelong

International Melbourne Cup contender Wicklow Brave has had a solid work-out at Geelong after a delayed start.

The Willie Mullins-trained stayer had his gallop put back after he shifted the plate on his near fore foot on the float trip from Werribee on Wednesday.

Wicklow Brave is a $15 chance in the Cup as he bids to go one better than his stablemate Max Dynamite who finished second under Frankie Dettori last year.
