Punter's Intelligence Wrap - Hill Stakes Day

Switzerland bounced back to his best at Rosehill Gardens on Saturday in the Group 2 Roman Consul Stakes (1200m) and put his hand up for a potential late TAB Everest call-up.

Punter's Intelligence recorded his overall time in 69.27, approximately 1.5 lengths faster than Group 3, The Nivison (1200m), and he won with style.

The colt travelled well throughout, accelerated hard and held his action to the line, clocking the meeting's fifth-fastest final 200m split in 11.06. Further, he went through the line full of energy and is proven in high-pressure races.

Three-year-olds have a strong record in the Everest, and his racing pattern/attributes suit the now Group 1 event.

Coleman's effort had merit after being slow away, and although run to suit, he ran on well, recording the meeting's sixth fastest final 600m in 32.84.

Ikasara will now be at optimal fitness, and Gatsby's was an eye-catching run, and he clocked 32.80 for his final 600m.

The Alan Brown Stakes (1400m) was a wide-open event, and it produced a thrilling finish with Here To Shock making it back-to-back wins.

The gelding was well ridden by Nash Rawiller, but he showed a turn of foot running 11.00 for his 400m-200m and held off the late challenge of Gringotts.

He is consistent as they come, winning 4 out of his past 8 starts and 3 placings as well.

Gringotts looks primed to peak in the upcoming Big Dance over 1600m at Randwick in a few weeks. He maintained a sustained sprint, running 22.44 for his final 400m, and can only step off that effort.

Waterford continues to sprint well fresh and ran the races fastest final 200m in 11.20.

Territory Express was the hidden run of the race and just had too much to do. He got too far back, was checked/blocked at key stages in the straight and ran the race's fastest final 600m in 32.92. Watch for him to improve sharply over more ground.

The feature Hill Stakes (1900m) won by Attrition was a brave effort after always facing the breeze in a genuine tempo, and although left in front a long way out, he just kept finding under pressure. He ran a solid overall time and recorded 33.88 for his final 600m.

Kovalica loomed to win, running a sharp 10.74 between the 400m-200m, but couldn't reel the eventual winner in. He beat the rest easily and is in-form.

Another ride that was a talking point was Josh Parr on El Castello, and he gave the colt every possible chance, but his effort had merit. He sprinted 11.16 between the 400m-200m and held his closing speed over the final furlong.

Swiftfalcon got way too far back but rattled home running 11.17 for his final 200m, the race's clear best. He looks primed for his next target, being the Group 1 Spring Champion over 2000m.

Fastest last 600m: Miss Hades 32.53
