Rosehill Gardens (Bm75)

Age: 3yo WT: 54kg Type: BM75

Stamina put up a good performance to win after missing the start. He was last in the nine-horse field early on, before recovering along the rails to settle seventh. He stuck to the rails on turning for home but was blocked until he switched out at the 250m. He then came with a strong late run to grab a photo finish decision. The top weight (59kg) Bull Point was ridden hard in the early stages and he drove though from his good barrier (2) to take the lead. He then steadied the tempo (first 800m 49.40), took a clear lead on straightening and was only caught in the last few strides for a short half head second. It was a good effort. Savvy Nature was third on the rails, took an inside run passing the 250m and then fought on for a sound third after having every chance. Happy Clapper went back from his outside barrier (9) and settled at the tail of the field. He went wide from the 600m and continued to run on well in the sprint home for a very good fourth. It was a most promising effort. Happy Esteem was fifth between runners to the turn and battled on very well for fifth, beaten only length and half. *ANZ
