<p>Via Sistina's odds, elite fourth-up form, and track record at Moonee Valley — is this her moment? Check out what the experts think.</p>
<p>The Cox Plate looms as Via Sistina's golden opportunity to prove her class once again at Moonee Valley. She enters as the market favourite with compelling statistics that tell a powerful story. Her fourth-up record is nothing short of exceptional — three wins and a second placing from four starts when racing at this stage of her campaign.</p>
<p>The mare destroyed the Moonee Valley track record last year, and with James McDonald back in the saddle, that explosive finish from the 700-metre bend remains fresh in punters' memories. CJ Waller has her primed perfectly, with elite work sessions on Saturday morning and Tuesday confirming she's back to her devastating best.</p>
<p>Track conditions are shaping up beautifully for Via Sistina's style, with a firm deck expected to suit her perfectly. When this mare hits her straps fourth-up on a track she's conquered before, with J-Mac guiding her tactical brilliance, the combination looks irresistible. Her recent training sessions suggest she's recaptured that hard fitness that made her unstoppable twelve months ago.</p>
