Walcha Jockey Club chairman Jim Nivison told NSW Country and Picnic Racing you need the right type of horse to win the main prize on the day.
"You need a good horse to win the cup; I'd say a good mid-week class of horse," Nivison told the publication.
"Some horses won't handle the track, because it is quite a tight course, but we always get some good types coming for the main races."
The once-a-year eight race-meet has attracted full fields while Saturday's non-TAB fixture will see lower class horses go around in five races.
