Rosehill   29 Jun 2024
 
GOING: H(8)

TAB HANDICAP 1500m

Track: HEAVY 8   Clear (Max: 19)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.88).  

Strong early pace expected with Fortune and Aramco pushing up to set the tempo from their low draws. Group 3 placegetter I'MINTOWIN (12) pushed forward on resumption with the 59.5kg when a gritty second to FRANZ JOSEF over 1500m here on June 15. Senior rider on today and has a solid second-up record. Will take holding out. TESTATOR SILENS (15) three-weeks between runs second-up when sat just off the pace with the 61.5kg when a tenacious second to ELSON BOY over 1300m at this track on June 15. Rawiller rides and will appreciate the drop in weight. Looks ready to win. HIGHLIGHTS (8) has fitness on his side and total forgive from the outside draw when a wilting ninth over 1600m at Randwick on June 8. Claim helps and no shock to see him turn it around. Group 2 placegetter WAR ETERNAL (10) surprised at big odds third-up when launching late for a tough nose victory over 1400m at Randwick three weeks ago. Will handle the class rise and power late from the awkward gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: I'mIntowin to salute.
