Race 4, No.11 - SEVEN'S ($5.00 on TAB)
Saturday 13th September – ROSEHILL GARDENS
Race 7 - 3:25PM GROUP 2-IRRESISTIBLE POOLS SHERACO STAKES (1200 METRES) |

2. JOLIESTAR ($2.25) was the latest addition to the TAB Everest field this week and she’s found a nice race to kick that campaign off in. The softer than expected track might make her a touch vulnerable but it could work in her favour if they’re coming down the middle. As always she’s trialled up nicely, she doesn’t run bad races and if she can get a reasonable gallop (unlike first-up last prep) she’ll be right there at the finish.
Race 8 - 4:00PM GROUP 2-YULONG RUN TO THE ROSE (1200 METRES) |

Can’t wait to see what 9. TEMPTED ($5.50) produces as a three-year-old. She was a bit stiff in the Golden Slipper and accounted for Savvy Hallie and Within The Law after that in an arrogant Percy Sykes win. Now with Ciaron Maher, she was trucking nicely in her recent trial and while she hasn’t seen a wet track as yet, her debut was on a soft 5, it’s the only real question mark as she looks an elite type in the making.
Race 9 - 4:40PM GROUP 2-TOYOTA FORKLIFTS THEO MARKS STAKES (1300 METRES) |

5. AUTUMN GLOW ($1.55) continues her rise through the grades and things do look to have fallen into place well for her to make it six from six. She reacted well under some pressure to pick up when resuming at 1100m on the heavy ground last month but her class shone through there. With only 12 runners she should find a good spot from the middle gate and if we’re back in the soft range it’ll be even better conditions for her. Has to go on top.
Race 10 - 5:15PM ROSEHILL BOWLING CLUB HANDICAP (1500 METRES) |

6. NARBOLD ($4.40) looked all over a winner when he hit the front at Randwick three weeks back and was just outpointed at the end of the mile by Glad You Think So. Perhaps a bit of cover this time from barrier one might be his edge, the sting out is in his favour and he’s just racing in career best form. No reason he couldn’t go on with it.
