TRIAL POINTERS

WARWICK FARM July 25: 2YOs to impress included BANKNOTE HUSTLER working strongly for a comfortable win in his 819m heat (48.53; 34.01).

GOSFORD July 23: Import ADELAIDE RIVER showed his class with an easy win, tracking up behind the leaders before going home nicely in his 1200m heat (72.58; 35.96). Kris Lees has talented 2YO CANTIAMO ready to resume after the filly posted a sharp win, showing classy acceleration to sprint home from off the pace and win her 800m heat with plenty in reserve.

RANDWICK July 22: Another super trial from 3YO gelding ROSELYN'S STAR, giving him three trial wins since May. Once again he was a class above his rivals in his open heat over 1045m, dominating from the front and posting good time with plenty in reserve (62.80; 33.79). Unraced since a win and two placings from his first three starts in early 2024, he sure is ready to make up for lost time. Other previously noted trial stars to post strong performances in the 2YO heats included FROSTFIRE, INIESTA, ZOUFAME and RAJWA. The stakes winning 3YO THE THREE HUNDRED impressed winning his open heat over 1045m (62.70; 34.51).

ROSEHILL July 15: There was plenty of depth in the 900m heat won by RAVENCLAW (55.13; 35.00).

RANDWICK July 11: ROSELYN'S STAR hasn't been seen at the races for 15 months but there is no doubt this 3YO gelding by Shalaa has plenty of ability. Showed potential in his early starts and has now won his two well-spaced trials since May. In this 742m heat he had plenty to offer never coming off the bit to win under a hold in the fastest time of the session (42.69; 32.57). Unraced I Am Invincible youngster RAJWA improved off his first two trials in March to put his stamp on his 742m heat (44.16; 33.60), sitting four wide outside the lead before taking the upper hand and extending for a dominant win. Follow with interest.

NEWCASTLE July 9: The effort of runner-up CANTIAMO in her 800m heat (47.68; 34.34) really took the eye as the Too Darn Hot filly worked to the line in great style from the back half in her first trial since February. She impressed making her debut at Randwick in December but an obvious hiccup saw her miss the autumn. Sure to be winning races on what she showed here.

WYONG June 16: ADELAIDE RIVER and DALMANNDI, imported stayers in the Lees stable, trialled with purpose and look set to improve on what they have displayed to date in a limited Australian career. DALMANNDI followed up with a strong trial win at Newcastle on July 9 that will have him ready to perform.

RANDWICK May 30: Keen to see ROSELYN'STAR, a 3YO by Shalaa, return to racing after 14 months off the scene. He recorded a win and two placings from his first three starts as a 2YO and his effort to win his return trial in the open heat over 740m (44.18; 33.72) was indicative of his potential. Worked well within himself to run past the leader and win unextended.

HAWKESBURY February 24: Too Darn Hot filly CANTIAMO was heavily supported to win her debut in a strong field at Randwick in December after good trials but could manage only fifth after showing speed. Showed she has the talent with another impressive trial, running home from off the pace under a cold ride to just miss in her 800m heat (47.10; 33.09). Top Newcastle stable obviously has a high opinion of her potential.

ROSEHILL December 23: The 2YO heats over 900m saw a smart win by Farnan colt INIESTA (54.46; 34.93). Still unraced, he has consistently performed well winning two of his four subsequent trials including the latest at Randwick on July 22.
