Don Corleone is a $9.50 chance for the Golden Slipper this Saturday. (Picture: ANZ Bloodstock) Part-owner Nick Vass just wants Don Corleone to replicate his terrific Blue Diamond Stakes run in the Golden Slipper at Rosehill on Saturday. If the talented colt shows the same tenacity on the straight in the 1200m sprint worth $5 million, Vass will be happy. He might also be toasting a victory after the prestigious Group 1 feature for two-year-olds. Don Corleone finished second and a length behind Little Brose last start, showing great racing…

Tegan Keys says $23 All Star Mile outsider The Inevitable has many quirks, but she “wouldn’t swap him for anyone”. Picture: Facebook. Tegan Keys admits she was “horrified” when she first laid eyes on The Inevitable, who is a $23 outsider across betting sites for the All Star Mile at The Valley on Saturday.

The six-year-old gelding might be the top weight in the 1600m feature this weekend, but Clarke purchased the son of Epaulette for one reason. “I purchased him from the Inglis Online Sales with his end goal mainly being the Katherine Cup,” he said.…
John Size runners fare well at Hong Kong Derby barrier draw
Beauty Eternal steams clear. Pursuing a fourth Hong Kong Derby (2000m) triumph at Sha Tin on Sunday, John Size is cautiously optimistic after leading Classic contender Beauty Eternal drew in the middle of the field. Victorious with Fay Fay (2012), Luger (2015) and Ping Hai Star (2018), Size is represented by three runners – Beauty Eternal, Tuchel and Sweet Encounter – on Sunday but the nature of Beauty Eternal’s searing rise through the classes under Zac Purton means the Starspangledbanner gelding has become the arbitrary benchmark of this season’s four-year-old…
