Phillip Stokes will bring Good Idea (So You Think {NZ}) back to defend his G2 Adelaide Cup title next month.

Good Idea hasn’t won a race since that upset victory and was last seen finishing fourth in a 2500-metre race at Moonee Valley last month.

“I actually think he’s going better this time around than last year going into the Adelaide Cup, which he will probably have to because he’ll carry a bigger weight, but I’m really happy with him,” Stokes told Racing.com.

“He’ll run in the Roy Higgins (at Flemington), same as he did last year, then he’ll go to the Adelaide Cup.”

Good Idea, is a home bred out of Group 1-winning mare Faint Perfume (Shamardal), who races for the Estate of the late Dato’ Tan Chin Nam and is managed by DGR’s Duncan Ramage.
