Our Black Book: Horses You Must Follow From Randwick 5/10
October 7, 2024

The replays and sectional times have been reviewed from Saturday’s Randwick meeting and our analyst has found an emergin 2yo filly that looks set to target the Golden Slipper and an exciting 4yo that had no luck in the final race of the day.

The John Thompson 2yo arrived at the races for the first time with a big watch on her after hitting the line strongly at the trials. She signalled she is a talented filly by showing versatility railing through to sit on-speed before the turn. When Chad Schofield pressed the button at the 300m she dashed clear and put them away by 1.4L.
It’s always fraught with danger getting excited about 2yos this time of year but the ominous factor with her is that John Thompson does not screw his 2yos down for start 1 like Waterhouse, Baker and Snowden do. She goes for a spell and I expect her to show significant improvement when she return pre-autumn.
