Rosehill Track Report – 28/09/2019

  • Rail: True
  • Penetrometer: 4.95
  • Weather: Fine
  • Track Type: Turf
  • Track Rating: Good (4)
  • Irrigation: Nil
  • Rainfall: Nil last 24 hours; 0.5mm last 7 days

It is sunny skies in Sydney for Golden Rose Stakes Day 2019 and with no chance of rainfall across the afternoon the current Good (4) Rosehill Gardens track rating looks set to stay for all the major spring races taking place.

Racing at Rosehill kicks off at 12:30pm (AEST) and the ace nine-race program continues through until the last at 5:25pm (AEST).

There are four Group status races on the card led by the season’s top middle-distance three-year-olds facing off in the Group 1 2019 Golden Rose Stakes (Race 7).

All eight original acceptors in the Golden Rose Stakes field remain in the mix with the latest markets at Ladbrokes.com.au dominated by the Godolphin-raced Bivouac ($2.70).

The last start Run To The Rose winner was dominant in the traditional lead-up into the Group 1 and should take the power of beating this afternoon.

The 2019 Shannon Stakes (Race 4) for Epsom Handicap hopefuls and the 2019 Golden Pendant (Race 5) are the two Group 2 support acts on the card, and both are free from scratchings at time of print.

The Group 1 The Metropolitan lead-up taking place today is the Group 3 2019 Colin Stephen Quality (2400m) and Race 6 has three withdrawals: Sweet Thomas (3), Naval Warfare (11) and Scarlet Dream (8).

There is also one scratching from the Group 3 2019 Gloaming Stakes (1800m) with #9 Extraordinary out of the Group 1 Spring Champion Stakes (2000m) preparatory race.
