There’s plenty of interest in Hong Kong champion Romantic Warrior’s run in the Turnbull Stakes at Flemington, but Rachel King’s fine form bodes well for Ozzmosis in what’s set to be a demanding Roman Consul Stakes at Rosehill.
Rachel King’s expertise will again be tested on Ozzmosis, a hot favourite, at Rosehill Gardens on Saturday.
Unbeaten at his only three starts, Ozzmosis takes on a field limited in numbers but riddled with potential and speed to burn.From the Bjorn Baker stable, Ozzmosis looked burly when he accounted for Saturday’s rivals Barber, Celestial Legend, Namesake and Royal Tribute in an 1100 metre Rosehill dash on September 23.
Also the Gai Waterhouse-Adrian Bott combination, so good at Randwick last Saturday, will likely be on show with Royal Tribute. With Tim Clark aboard, there will be no easy sections.With Nash Rawiller on Barber, Tom Berry back after a break and firing on all cylinders, and Kerrin McEvoy waiting for the last burst on Celestial Legend, when the whips are out, touch, perfect positioning, and guile mixed with strength is going to be needed.
While Carpenter has a healthy respect in the Turnbull for the Chris Waller’s Caulfield and Melbourne Cup hopes - Francesco Guardi, Osipenko, and Soulcombe - at this stage they are not proven elite weight-for-age performers. Romantic Warrior is.Still Carpenter stressed the gelding will be better for its main target of this campaign, the Cox Plate at Moonee Valley, adding up to whether punters want to take the $2.10 odds on offer at the moment. I don’t.
