A bumper card of racing has been assembled for Rosehill this Saturday, highlighted by the Group l Golden Rose (1400m), fast becoming a stallion-making race should a colt win it. Here are my five plays across the meeting.
Bet One- Win- Race Three Number 1 Tarka
He just has to hold his form and I think he’ll be too good once again. He had a lovely win two back at the Warwick Farm midweeks before going to the Stan Fox where he was somewhat unwanted in betting but an absolute pearler from J Mac got the David Payne trained three year old.
He too looks a real stayer and he’ll have no issue with 1800m. $2.5-$3 is fine.
Bet Two- Win- Race Five Number 6 Youngstar
She only has to have some dash still in her legs and she’ll be winning. This Group l winning mare for Chris Waller looked to go outstanding to the eye when she resumed in the Tramway three weeks ago, closing off strongly nearer the inside behind stablemate Comin Through.
Up to 1500m, fitter, look two big ticks for her and we know she has class.
Bet Three- Win- Race Six Number 1 Prompt Response
She’s very reliable and a relatively safe option for mine. The WaterBott stable have been going awful over the last few weeks but as the Spring heats up, I’m hoping the stable can bounce back, starting with this Group l winning mare, who could have headed to the breeding barn after winning the Tatts Tiara during the Brisbane Winter Carnival but she’s back for the Spring.
1400m fresh tells me there’s intent to run well and that looks the case off the back of a couple of impressive trials. That $5.50-$6 mark is acceptable.
Bet Four- Win- Race Seven Number 2 The Autumn Sun
He’s the best horse in the race and I expect him to prove that here. He resumed in the Stan Fox a fortnight ago and if you were on, gee it was a tough watch. To be fair, it was more a case of J Mac on Tarka riding an outstanding race rather than McEvoy slaughtering this colt.
Fast run 1400m looks perfect and he’ll have last say.
Bet Five- Each Way- Race Nine Number 11 Jake’s Hill
The double figures on offer looks a good gamble. I reckon Chris Waller has this horse going really well this time in. Luckless when he resumed at the Gold Coast behind Saxton Rock before going to the Randwick mile three weeks ago where he again didn’t have much luck when appearing to have a bit to offer behind Goodfella.
Up to 2000m third up looks perfect, first time at the trip since arriving in Australia, keen to see what he does. $12-$13 is fine.
