No surprise...Topweight Scenic Shot is OUT of the Perth Cup and will be spelled and then prepared for another Queensland campaign. Trainer Dan Morton withdrew SS from the feature on Monday.

Newcastle stayer Newport will now head the weights, which will be raised 2kgs following Scenic Shot's scratching, leaving Newport to carry the 57kgs minimum topweight.
