Royal Randwick is the destination for NSW metro racing on Saturday afternoon, with a bumper 10-race program set to get underway at 11:05am local time. The rail is out +3m the entire circuit, and with the track already listed as a Heavy 8 at the time of acceptances, and more consistent rainfall on the radar leading into the weekend, punters should anticipate the track to maintain its Heavy rating for race-day.
Winter Stakes Tip: Showmanship
The $41.00 available with horse racing bookmakers for Showmanship in the Listed Winter Cup (1400m) seems too big. The lightly raced eight-year-old was impressive against the bias first-up in the Listed Wangoom Handicap (1200m) at Warrnambool on May 1, accelerating through the wire to get within 3.6 lengths of Tuvalu. He boasts a Randwick win on his resume in the 2022 Group 3 Show County Quality (1200m), and now third-up with fitness on his side, Showmanship can give this a real shake at a massive each-way price.

Best Bet at Randwick: Shezanalister
Shezanalister returns after a 133-day spell and appears primed for a first-up assault. The daughter of Star Turn was sent to the paddock after winning three of her four starts last preparation, with her only failure coming at Rosehill on February 24 when ridden against her pattern. She’s trialed exceptionally well heading into this competitive BM78 contest for the fillies and mares, and although she’ll need to lug 61kg to victory, Shezanalister should have the class to get the job done.

Next Best at Randwick: Age Of Sail
Age Of Sail is yet to miss the frame in three Australian starts and punters can expect that trend to continue in this staying contest. He was sensational first-up at Eagle Farm on June 8, closing off strongly behind Princess Rhaenys over an unsuitable trip to get within 2.6 lengths. She went on to frank the form by saluting in the Listed Tattersall’s Gold Crown (2140m) on June 29, and with Age Of Sail dropping back significantly in grade, this guy looks perfectly placed by the Kris Lees barn to do something similar.

Best Value at Randwick: Zaragoza
Zaragoza should relish the Heavy conditions on his first start for the Robert & Luke Price barn. The son of Street Boss had one win across his three starts for James Cummings, and that came at Kembla Grange on rain-affected ground on January 3. His trials suggest he’s returning at peak fitness despite a 182-day spell, and although Jay Ford may need to ride for luck in this ultra-competitive BM78 contest, Zaragoza should give followers a sight at each-way odds in the testing conditions.

#11 Zaragoza (10)
