Sydney racing heads to Rosehill today. Our analyst likes a Baker 5yo coming off an unlucky 2nd in the Winter Challenge feature and a Lees speedster getting a great map as the value play.
Best Selection: R9- Robusto
Robusto had no luck when 1.5L 2nd in the Listed Winter Stakes. He was all over heels from the 400m to the 150m and when he finally saw clear running at the 150m he charged home in a manner that suggested he could’ve beaten Estadio Mestalla and meets him 3kg better at the weights. I love the guide that the Baker team thought he was going well enough to run him in the G1 Stradbroke 1st up.

Value Selection: R4- Tasoraay
Tasoraay gets a big map advantage over the Rosehill 1500m, which typically favours on-speed runners. I’m willing to be slightly forgiving of his last start 1.4L 6th over 1400m at Rosehill. He was fantastic leading all the way to win in Class 1 company at Scone on Cup Day before a brave 0.4L 2nd at Rosehill. His main rivals are going to have a margin to make up on him in the run.
