TRIAL POINTERS

GOSFORD January 5: Deteriorating conditions but 4YO mare ALICIA ROMA skated through the heavy ground for an easy win in her 800m heat (49.04; 36.86), travelling strongly on the bit and having plenty in reserve at the finish. She's had three trials since early December and is set to add to her good record in the right short course company.

WARWICK FARM January 3 SPACEWALK is a Group horse and it was no surprise to see him dominate his 812m heat (48.00; 33.66) with strong win under a quite ride from James McDonald.

ROSEHILL December 29:  Where has 4YO entire NASDAQ DUBAI been since his only start as a 2YO in February of 2021? This was his first trial in 18 months but his natural talent was obvious as he led his 900m heat easily and was never off the bit to record a soft win by 2.32 lengths (54.43; 34.36). Russian Revolution youngster RED RESISTANCE made good improvement from his first trial when placed at Randwick to record a strong win in his 2YO heat over 900m. The time was fair (54.86; 34.64) but he did it well to travel easily three wide outside the lead and gain the upper hand with something in reserve over the last 100m.

WARWICK FARM December 23: The fastest 2YO trial was won by the racy STORM THE RAMPARTS (48.16; 33.92) while I liked the way AUTUNNO found the line under an easy ride for second in his heat (48.21; 33.98).

HAWKESBURY December 19: Top stable has a smart prospect in their Merchant Navy filly STEEL CITY. This was her first trial and she looked a readymade runner leading her 800m heat easily and running away with it to score by 3.7 lengths with plenty in hand. Posted the quickest time in the three 2YO heats (47.47; 34.54).
