Tea Rose Stakes at Randwick draws talented field
A formidable field of 16 promising fillies is set to light up Randwick this Saturday afternoon in the eagerly anticipated Group 2 Tea Rose Stakes (1400m) in Sydney, Australia.
The race marks the third leg of the illustrious Princess Series, promising a showcase of top-tier three-year-old talent.
Leading the charge is the dynamic Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained Autumn Ballet after a commanding victory in the first leg, the Group 2 Silver Shadow Stakes (1200m), on August 19.
The Waterhouse & Bott stable boasts a strong contingent, featuring the formidable trio of Tropical Squall, Platinum Jubilee, and Summer Loving.
Ciaron Maher & David Eustace’s Tiz Invincible emerges as the favourite with odds of +270 with Bovada, eyeing a remarkable third consecutive triumph after her stellar performance in the Group 2 Furious Stakes (1200m) on September 2, the second leg of the Princess Series. A horse in impeccable form, Tiz Invincible is poised to leave her mark on this marquee event.
Kimochi and Mumbai Muse are determined to seize the opportunity presented by the extended 200m, aiming to outpace their rivals after finding the 1200m distance a tad short of their optimal range.
Adding an intriguing dimension to the race are the likes of Miss Joelene, journeying down from Queensland with the accomplished Kyle Wilson-Taylor in the saddle, and the promising August Bloom, a recent maiden winner at Hawkesbury.
The Tea Rose Stakes headlines a stacked Randwick program, slated as the sixth race of the day and scheduled to commence at 2:50pm AEST.
