Weekend Wrap
There was a proven G1 star in action on the weekend and plenty of promising young horses to showcase.
Group 1 Racing – Tatts Tiara
Eagle Farm Race 8 – Won by Bella Nipotina
Date: 29/06/24
Race Overview – As you would expect in a Group 1 they went out at a good tempo.
- Bella Nipotina – It’s easy to get caught up in trying to get the best horse beaten in a race by finding something at ‘value,’ but these genuine Group 1 horses just rise to the occasion. Ryan Maloney didn’t worry about getting cover but got her into a rhythm not far from the lead. Far too good.
- Semana – Placed in 3 Group 1’s now. She will get her chance
- Bubble Rock – Gave a massive kick at 2nd run in Aus. Interesting horse going forward.
Highlight Races from the Weekend
Eagle Farm Race 3 – Won by Hidden Wealth
Date: 29/06/24
Race Overview – First 600m was quite moderate and that allowed Hidden Wealth to cross from the wide gate. Gave a massive kick on the turn and the last 400m sectionals were very good.
- Hidden Wealth – Showed real intent from that gate. Versatile horse who can win better races based on that.
- Millane – Punters are probably sick of this horse but, given the way the race was run, and it’s Starting Price you just have to give it another chance.
Rosehill Race 8 – Won by Elouyou
Date: 29/06/24
Race Overview – Went out quick and came home quick. Will be a good form race.
- Elouyou – Every time he has gone to the races he has rated well. Good horse who can progress further.
- Silvanito – Past 2 have been very good. Can win off this next start.
Maiden Winner of the Week:
Date: 26/6/24
Sale Race 1 – Won by Gallant Son
Why: No prizes for finding this. Went out in moderate sectionals but late sectionals were superb.
Horses to follow from the race:
- Gallant Son – They don’t win their debuts like this often. Group class at bare minimum.
- Crime Of Passion – Happy to follow the whole race so has to go into the blackboo.
- Flattered – Started favourite and want to follow anything with a decent SP out of this race.
Other Notable Horses:
- Great Maximus – Taken to the front on Saturday and won like a good horse.
- Our Queen – Irish bred filly who debuted in fine style. Could be one out of the box.
- Jokers Grin – Very promising WA horse.
- I Am Famous – Won a race at Hawkesbury that should prove to be a good form race. Battle Of Vienna ran 2nd and should be followed.
