This season’s Group 1 Schweppes Thousand Guineas (1600m) has been moved to a later time-slot over the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival and will take place on Saturday November 18 at the tail-end of the festival at Caulfield Racecourse.
Among the key early entries is the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained Tropical Squall who was the all-the-way winner of Sydney’s Group 1 Flight Stakes (1600m) on Epsom Day.
Global Glamour (2016) was the last filly to complete the interstate Flight Stakes – Thousand Guineas double and she was also prepared by the Waterhouse & Bott stable.
The team have a total of seven Thousand Guineas nominations in their hunt for a second success this year with Tropical Squall joined by stablemates Aditi, Amazonian Lass, Oz Empress, Sicilian, Zelta, and one of the other early fancies in the pre-field markets Azula.
Tropical Squall and Azula both sit as $9 fancies with the latter having form around King Colorado when the daughter of Maurice ran 12th in Brisbane’s Group 1 J.J. Atkins (1600m) before the break.
Ace Sydney-based horseman Chris Waller won last year’s event with Madame Pommery as well as the 2014 race with Amicus.
He is in with six nominees chasing back-to-back wins in 2023 with Bolero Belle, Cigar Flick, Joliestar, Lazzago, Miss Reilly, and his Flight Stakes third place-getter Tutta La Vita.
The other best out of Sydney’s Flight Stakes results nominated for a Melbourne run in the Thousand Guineas is the Gary Portelli-trained runner-up Kimochi.
The consistent daughter of Brave Smash was a perennial place-getter all throughout the Princess Series producing a frustrating succession of close efforts in the Silver Shadow (3rd), Furious Stakes (2nd), Tea Rose (2nd) and then the Flight Stakes on September 30.
Current all-in Thousand Guineas odds online at Ladbrokes.com.au meanwhile are led by the untapped Godolphin-raced Commemorative ($6) who is yet to race as a three-year-old this season.
The nicely-bred James Cummings-trained daughter of I Am Invincible won her debut as a juvenile at Canterbury back in June by nearly five lengths and has trialled well twice at Warwick Farm ahead of her return.
Cummings and Godolphin have also nominated Zoustar filly Inhibitions ($17) who has been in strong form this season at Moonee Valley with a trio of top two runs and Kigman filly Zardozi ($11) who won the Group 2 Edward Manifold Stakes (1600m) at Flemington on October 7 in an impressive upset.
Coeur Volante is the other single-figure hope at $9 with Michael Moroney’s Proisir filly last seen winning the Group 3 Scarborough Stakes (1200m) at Moonee Valley on Moir Stakes Night.
Other early standouts in the Thousand Guineas entries include Frosted filly Arctic Glamour who won at Rosehill by over four lengths on September 27 for Gerald Ryan & Sterling Alexiou and Ciaron Maher & David Eustace’s Furious Stakes – Tea Rose Stakes double winner Tiz Invincible.
The Thousand Guineas first acceptances close at midday local time on Tuesday October 31, 2023.
