Rosehill hosts a rare Wednesday meeting on September 30th, and seven races are on the program.
With the rail set out five metres and the track rated in the Soft (5) range, you can find our Rosehill tip sheet below.
Low Key is a two-start maiden, but after debuting for a midfield finishing behind Blue Door in the Kindergarten Stakes back in April, she returned to action to only just miss at Randwick-Kensington earlier this month. With natural improvement, she’s ready to win.
| 9. Low Key (6) J: Tim Clark 55kg 6×2 T: Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott | |||
| Second-up. First start 6th of 10 in the G3 Kindergarten Stakes at Randwick on April 4 over 1100m, slow going 3.5 len behind Blue Door with 54.5kg at $21. Went for a break before returning held ground to the line 2nd of 7 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Randwick Kensington on September 9 over 1150m, nose behind Threads carrying 55kg at $1.45. Back in fine order and is a big chance to go one better. | |||
We haven’t seen Barracks at the races since May, but after a couple of near misses when the runner up in races at Newcastle and Hawkesbury, he was last seen finishing on the placegetters’ heels in black type company in Brisbane. A couple of recent trials add further confidence and from a low draw, he should get every chance.
| 2. Barracks (3) J: Nash Rawiller 58kg 224x T: Ciaron Maher | |||
| Resuming after a five months break. Finished off last preparation fourth of 10 at Eagle Farm in the LR Dalrello May 2 over 1000m, in the wet; 4.5 len behind The Next Episode with 57kg at $11. On debut second of 8 at Newcastle Super 2yo Mdn-Sw February 28 over 900m, soft track; 1.75 len behind Potomac River carrying 57kg at $3. Expecting him to hit the ground running this campaign. | |||
Anthropoid has missed placing once in four runs back this time, breaking his maiden at Wyong before a couple of smart runs to only just miss when up in grade at his two latest. In peak order this week and down in the weights, he gets the services of James McDonald and launches from the ideal barrier 4.
| 9. Anthropoid (4) J: James McDonald 55.5kg x4132 T: Brad Widdup | |||
| Form hard to fault. Most recently raced on speed throughout when 2nd of 8 in a Prov Cl1 at Kembla Grange on September 12 over 1400m, 0.5 len behind Green Winter with 59kg at $1.90. The run before that 3rd of 9 in a Cg&E Bm72 at Warwick Farm on September 2 over 1400m, 1.1 len behind Sociable with 54.5kg at $8.50. Blinkers and J Mac for the first time – a couple of noteworthy changes. | |||
Kenmare Bay hit the line to place behind Aethelwulf here over 2000m two runs back and was only denied by an impressive Appeared getting out to this trip last time out. This is undoubtedly a weaker race and a great opportunity for him to go one better.
| 2. Kenmare Bay (4) J: Zac Lloyd 57.5kg 45532 T: John O’shea & Tom Charlton | |||
| Racing well recently. Most recently 2nd in a small field in a Bm78 at this track on September 12 over 2400m, 2 len behind Appeared with 56.5kg at $3.10. The race before that 3rd of 9 in a Bm78 at this track on August 29 over 2000m, 2.5 len behind Aethelwulf carrying 56.5kg at $15. Made headway last time. Not a great deal of depth to this race – never gets a better chance to salute. | |||
Think Itz You finished fifth in consecutive races at Warwick Farm first and second up this time before going up to Newcastle for a dominant victory in Class 1 company. I’m confident that performance and victory will have brought him right on and with Tommy Berry retaining the ride, he can make a successful transition back into midweek metro company.
| 4. Think Itz You (1) J: Tommy Berry 59kg 6×551 T: Chris Waller | |||
| At the latest run favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; scored a big 3.5 len win in a Cl1-Sw at Newcastle on September 18 over 1850m defeating Tacitly carrying 59kg at $3.10. The race before that 5th of 9 in a Bm72 at Warwick Farm on September 2 over 1600m, 5 len behind Flying From Above carrying 57.5kg at $6.50. Harder this time but he is progressive and should give a good account. | |||
It was an easy watch in BM64 company at Gosford when resuming last month, and Regal Problem continued her positive journey through the grades when getting up again at Randwick-Kensington last time out. Fitter third-up, slightly further out in trip and from the good draw, I can’t find a reason why she won’t be in the finish again.
| 2. Regal Problem (5) J: Tyler Schiller 61kg 06×11 T: Joseph Pride | |||
| Third-up today. First-up favourite; won by 1.4 len in a F&M Bm64 at Gosford on August 28 over 1200m on a rain affected track defeating Wanda’s Spark carrying 59kg at $3.60. Second run from a spell favourite; won by a long-neck in a F&M Bm72 at Randwick Kensington on September 9 over 1250m defeating Titanium Miss carrying 58kg at $1.80. No reason to hop off at this stage. | |||
Santana hasn’t been seen at the races since April, but he was a consistent performer last time in, breaking his maiden at the midweeks in Melbourne while placing a further three times, including a nice effort at Caulfield in April. With a couple of handy trial performances under his belt, he’s fit and forward enough to have an impact in something like this.
| 9. Santana (4) J: Tyler Schiller 58kg 2213x T: M, W & J Hawkes | |||
| Resuming after a break of six months. Finished off last preparation third of 12 at Caulfield Cl3-Sw April 11 over 1400m, 1.2 len behind Cavalry Scout carrying 57kg at $5.50. Previously first up; second of 10 at Caulfield Heath 3yo Mdn-Sw March 4 over 1200m, 1.0 len behind Melian carrying 58kg at $3.70. Will be up for this. | |||
Best – Race 6 No. 2 Regal Problem
