2026 The Rosebud Day Preview

2026 The Rosebud Day Preview

• Craig Sheppard
The Rosebud Day takes centre stage at Rosehill this Saturday. There are 10 races set down, with the Listed The Rosebud the feature. The race shapes as an important lead-up towards the Group 1 Golden Rose. The track is rated a Soft 6, and showers are possible. That should keep the track conditions in the soft range for most of the afternoon. The rail is in the true position. On softer Rosehill surfaces, it can be worth watching whether riders look away from the inside as the meeting develops. That puts extra focus on the speed map, race shape and…

Daily Racing Tips - Wednesday 12th August

Our Daily Racing Tips for Wednesday 12th August focus on four of the strongest betting plays from the midweek cards. Race 3 – IRRESISTIBLE POOLS AND SPAS HANDICAP (1900 METRES) No. 1 Cheval De Bois CHEVAL DE BOIS (1) rises sharply in weight, but this is a considerable drop in class from what he has been facing lately. The Annabel & Rob Archibald-trained gelding was last seen working strongly to the line to finish second, beaten just under a length, in a Benchmark 78 Handicap over 2000m at Rosehill. That followed back-to-back runner-up finishes over 1550m at Kensington and 1500m…

Canterbury Preview - Wednesday 12th August

• Craig Sheppard
Canterbury racing tips are on the agenda for Wednesday, with a seven-race card set down for decision. The track conditions could improve slightly, with fine weather forecast and the surface rated a Soft 6. The rail is out 2m, and Canterbury’s tight circuit often gives on-speed runners their chance. That puts extra focus on the speed map and early positioning, especially for horses that can settle handy and quicken before the short straight. Our race analysis looks at the key runners, main winning chances and best betting opportunities across the program. Here is our race-by-race Canterbury preview and midweek racing…

Sunshine Coast Race 2 – MASTERFOODS Class 2 Handicap (1000 METRES) No. 7 Tasman Bay TASMAN BAY (7) led throughout to break her maiden first-up over this course and distance, showing the early speed that has always been a key part of her profile. The Barry Lockwood & Emma-Jane Vincent-trained mare had trialled well before that return and should take confidence from finally putting one away. While she now jumps from a maiden to a Class 2,…

Eagle Farm Preview – Saturday 8th August 

• Craig Sheppard
A nine-race card at Eagle Farm gives punters plenty to work through this Saturday. Fine weather is forecast, while the track holds a Soft 5 rating and the rail moves out 3m.
