The Cowra Jockey Club is the destination for country racing on Sunday afternoon, with a competitive eight-part program lined up for Cowra Japan Cup (1200m) Day. The rail is in the true position the entire circuit, and with no significant rainfall predicted to hit the course proper, punters can expect a genuine Good 4 surface. All the action for 2025 Cowra Japan Cup Day is set to get underway at 1:20pm local time.
Cowra Japan Cup Tip: Outback Angel
Outback Angel is flying this preparation, securing two wins and another minor placing in her four starts. The daughter of Super One was tested in metro company for the first time in her most recent outing, closing to within a length of Manuscript at Canterbury on New Year’s Day. She was a dominant winner prior to that effort, and provided she can hold her form in the Cowra Japan Cup, Outback Angel must be considered the one to beat.

Best Bet at Cowra: Ghielmi
The Mitchell Beer-trained Ghielmi looks prepared to strike on debut, surging through the wire in a recent barrier trial victory at Nowra on September 23. The Toronado gelding went on to score by four lengths on that occasion, and although his most recent trial on a Heavy surface at Kembla Grange left a lot to be desired, it’s worth forgiving on such testing conditions. Getting back on top of the ground should be ideal, and with Nick Heywood set to gain an economical run from stall six, Ghielmi should have no issues justifying the short price with horse racing bookmakers.

Next Best at Cowra: Victory Roll
Victory Roll got a pass mark returning in the Moruya Cup on January 6 and was always going to find the 1425m short of his best trip. The son of Belardo looked to be gone in the final 400m before picking himself off the canvas, doing his best work late to get within six lengths of Charlemagne who was already off-and-gone with the prize. He may be better with sting out of the ground considering he’s yet to figure on a Good surface; however, with a class edge on his rivals, expect Victory Roll to be right in this when the whips are cracking.
