BEST BETS
R1 n1 MARQUESS – Maps very well 2nd on leaders back or leading 3rd up off 28 days rises 6.5kg out to 2040m (+640m) off last start 6th Rosehill 1400m when wasn’t suited at all back in distance off a slow tempo beaten 2.2L at $3.60. Lot better placed here today this track/tempo and figures huge last prep once out to 1900-2000m. Clear top pick.
R5 n9 ROLL ON HIGH – Maps back on a slow tempo which is never ideal this track. 2nd up off 21 days drops 2kg out to 1600m (+200m) off resuming run 6th Randwick in Group 1 1400m when given no hope going back off a wide draw on a slow tempo. She charged late there in a race where the subsequent form has been excellent- and her run was as good as there was in the race. Genuine high-class filly with elite talent who will be charging late here and can win with any luck from the back.
R6 n4 MOLLYNICKERS – Maps back in small field but ok from there this tempo 3rd up off 14 days stays at 1600m off last start 3rd to Autumn Angel beaten 0.4L off a Fast tempo in excellent figures. Missed a run there in straight but was very strong through the line. All her form is excellent for today’s race.

R6 n2 RIFF ROCKET – Awkward map back inside 5P back and Nash has hardly been on fire in recent weeks- should have back of King Of Colorado 3rd up off 21 days out to 2000m (+400m) off last start 3rd Flemington in very high rating Aust Guineas beaten 2.2L when only got warmed up late. Was a huge close there off a Very Fast tempo- always a sign of quality in a horse. Exploded 3rd up last prep on Soft 5 track Flemington off a similar 2nd up run to last start. Map not ideal here but interesting that Waller scratched Militarize from this race- maybe this horse was always the number one seed at 2000m. Class act.
R7 n16 MILITARIZE – Maps just off MF and away from inside- will get his chance to launch late from there this tempo 3rd up off 14 days back to 1500m (-100m) off last start 2nd Randwick to Celestial Legend in high rating Randwick Guineas beaten a nose and was coming back again strongly on the line. He did have a perfect run/ride that day but that winner could end up a very special horse. I prefer him back at 1500m-high class colt who has the figures to dominate this race on a soft track (he excels these surfaces) with 56kg. Last time he raced at Rosehill he won Golden Rose Group 1 1400m in an outstanding display. Clear top pick.
R10 n3 OLENTIA – Maps MF off fence 4P back and suited late off this tempo 2nd up off 35 days and no public trial. Rises 1.5kg stays at 1200m off last start 2nd to Semana Randwick 1200m when clearly should have beaten her late. Huge close there late off a Very Slow tempo when in traffic inside from the 300m and only really clear inside the last 100m. Semana was then narrowly beaten last week in Group 1 Coolmore. Very good fresh stats and figures and she will zoom home late down the middle of the track for J Mac late in the day and be winning.

R4 n2 EL MORZILLO – Gets well back on map but tempo up front will suit her late. First prep 4th race start off 42 days and no public trial. Rises 3kg and back to 1000m (-100m) off last start 9th at Randwick. Overcame a wide run off a slow tempo winning at Sun Coast two starts back with a strong close over the last 800m for a young horse. Straight to Sydney after that for Inglis Classic and not much luck getting well back on only an even tempo, held up on turn and only beaten 2.6L by Fully Lit who was on speed. That is clearly the best form reference for today’s race. Nice filly and top pick here freshened up over 1000m off a fast tempo, she should run over these late.
R5 n4 MALABOOM – Forward to lead but will have company up there today 2nd up off 57 days (Very Good 2nd to Front Page Goulburn trial March 1) drops 1kg staying at 1000m off last start resuming 3rd Warwick Farm 1000m when led on an even tempo and was difficult to ride out late hanging in badly at 150m. Gear change today should correct that and her trial was very impressive. Fast filly well suited today this map in the lead, keen she wins.
R7 n1 BUBBAS BAY – Good map on speed 6th up off 17 days rises 3kg staying at 1200m off last start win when sat 2nd on even tempo and out them to the sword late winning easily 3.4L on Slow 5. Figures were dominant from meeting across the board. Was unlucky not to win BM78 start prior behind Blue Spinel here Slow 7 and is just a very consistent reliable mare racing up here in these class races. Keen she wins again.
R8 n8 OUR MAGNUS – Nice map this tempo MF outside and will be able to run home late from there. 2nd up off 21 days rises 2kg stays at 1200m off resuming run 2nd to Kanazawa when charged late off a slow tempo to just miss. Stays at 1200m 2nd up but the likely fast speed engaged here will suit and will be hard to hold out on resuming run in similar race this course and distance. Very consistent last prep without winning, looks to have come back very well and M Rodd sticks with him.

R6 n7 WILD BELLE – resumes and has a very good fresh record. Should’ve won when a very unlucky 4th two runs back at Ascot but atoned with an easy win in the Listed Miss Andretti at Pinjarra. She’s a classy mare who maps well and looks the winner

R1 n2 TAKE A PICTURE – will be at peak fitness now after two runs back from a break. He was a good thing beat last start when held up badly on the corner, maps well and this looks his race
