The Listed Lord Mayor’s Cup headlines another quality ten-race program at Rosehill Gardens this Saturday.
With plenty of talent engaged there are several great betting races on the card, and you can find all of my Lord Mayor’s Cup Day Tips below.
Namesake has returned two nice efforts since debuting, and this looks a very winnable Saturday metro race.
The Maurice colt stamped himself as one to watch by winning on debut at Warwick Farm last month, and he was last seen finishing second over 1200m on Gosford Gold Cup Day.
Fitter third-up, he can continue his rise through the grades.
Mayrose is at peak fitness and gets another chance to strike in a Midway Handicap on Saturday.
The Pride Of Dubai mare needed her first couple back this time to blow out the cobwebs, but she stormed home to win one of these races at Randwick two back, before only just missing here at Rosehill at her latest.
With even luck this week, she can fight out the finish again.
Swift Charm steps out third-up this week, and one of these Highway Handicaps doesn’t look beyond him.
The Per Incanto gelding has hardly put a hoof wrong since debuting, winning three of five career starts and only just missing on another occasion.
This is easily the toughest task that he has been set, but he’s ready for it, and he’s drawn to receive every chance under regular hoop Matthew Bennett.
Battleton hasn’t been seen at the races this year, but he returns in what I believe to be a very winnable race at Rosehill Gardens on Saturday.
The Zoustar gelding returned some lovely performances throughout his entire 2022 campaign, despite not winning, placing in a couple of black type races and finding form around some talented opposition.
He’s missed placing only once at this point of his preparation previously and has had the benefit of a couple of trials leading up to his return.
Domingo can return to winning form on Lord Mayor’s Cup Day.
The Contributer gelding recording consecutive wins in Class 1 company at Canberra and Wyong before earning a start in the Australian Derby, albeit clearly a bridge too far for him.
He’s since finished third in BM72 company at Canterbury, and this looks the perfect opportunity for him to successfully transition to Saturday metro company, in my opinion.
Money From The Sky will have his first start for Sara Ryan at Rosehill on Saturday, and I am confident that is can be a winning one.
The Frankel gelding has been excellent for Mark Newnham since resuming, only just missing in BM72 company before saluting here at Rosehill last time out.
He steps out in peak order, he’s drawn ideally and I can’t find a reason why he won’t be in the finish again.
The consistent Al Aabir is back in Sydney this week following some smart performances north of the border, and with some relief in the weights under Jasper Franklin, I think that he can return to winning form.
The son of Sea The Stars won each of his first two starts back this time, both at Eagle Farm, and he has only just missed at his last two.
He steps out this week in peak order, and in what looms as a wide open contest, I think that he can make all.
Logan Street Lion’s resuming performance behind a fit and impressive Coal Crusher was excellent, and he looks capable of going one better at Rosehill this week.
The Tavistock gelding has been excellent for the Waller yard for a few seasons now, and he beat home some classy gallopers when resuming.
He’s a winner at this point of his preparation previously, and he just need some luck from barrier 13 to figure in the finish again.
Mount Popa will take his place in this year’s Lord Mayor’s Cup field and I think he can win.
The veteran son of Maxios is yet to strike in three starts back this year, but there’s no doubt that he has continued to improve with each, and he was last seen finishing only a couple of lengths behind the winner in the Gosford Gold Cup.
He has drawn horrifically, but we can have an each way play at the price.
Bitcoin Baby makes her return to the races in the last at Rosehill on Saturday, and I am keen to have something on.
The Sooboog mare has been a model of consistency throughout her career, and returned a winner in BM72 company last time in, while continuing to perform with racing and as the bar was raised.
She’s drawn to receive every chance under Chad Schofield and does have a lot of these rivals covered for class.
