Two Group 1 races will be the highlight of Mostyn Copper Group Randwick Guineas Day at Royal Randwick this Saturday, 10 March.
James Cummings-trained Kementari ($2.50 TAB Fixed Odds) lines up as the race favourite in the Group 1 $1million Mostyn Copper Group Randwick Guineas and will be looking to be the first horse since It’s A Dundeel (2013) to complete the three-year-old Triple Crown.
The Group 1 $500,000 Bisley Workwear Canterbury Stakes also features on the nine race card where Clearly Innocent, trained by Kris Lees is the $4.80 TAB Fixed Odds favourite in an open market.
The build-up to the world’s richest two-year-old race continues on Saturday with the running of the Group 2 $300,000 The Daily Telegraph Reisling Stakes (fillies) and the Group 2 $300,000 UNSW Todman Stakes (colts and geldings).
The winner of each will gain automatic entry to the Group 1 $3.5m Longines Golden Slipper on 24 March.
The Daily Telegraph Reisling Stakes has produced significant winners of upcoming two-year-old races with seven going forward to win the Golden Slipper, including 2017 victor, She Will Reign.
Similarly, the UNSW Todman Stakes is a strong form indicator for the Longines Golden Slipper with five winners going on to win the double, with the last being Vancouver in 2013.
Market odds for the full nine race card are available from the TAB.
