The $150,000 Rockhampton Cup will headline the second day of the Rockhampton Jockey Club Winter Racing Carnival this Saturday afternoon. With good weather forecast across the weekend, the track will improve from the Soft 5 rating on Thursday and racing should begin on a perfect Good 4 surface. The rail will remain in the +2.5m position for the entire circuit, with racing set to kick off at 12:09pm AEST.
Rockhampton Cup tip: Sneak Preview
Following three wins in his last four starts last preparation, Sneak Preview is yet to win this time in, but the David Vandyke-trained gelding appears to be getting closer after three starts. This eight-year-old gelding finished fifth behind Princess Rhaenys in Benchmark 90 grade at Eagle Farm, and he will appreciate the easier level of racing in the feature event. From barrier six, Justin Huxtable can settle midfield off the rail and get to the outside of runners by the 400m mark before finishing off strongly.

Best Bet at Rockhampton: More Stylish
More Stylish will put her unbeaten start to her career on the line in the opening event as the John Wigginton-trained filly attempts to improve her record to three wins from as many starts. This daughter of Better Than Ready proved way too good for her rivals on resumption from an 18-week spell at this track over 1100m last start, running away with a dominant 2.8-length win. This girl will gain the services of Robbie Dolan here, and if she shows a similar turn of foot to her first two victories, More Stylish will win again.

Next Best at Rockhampton: Adiella
Adiella has only tasted defeat once from her four starts to date, and her last start victory over 1300m at Warwick was the best of her career. After settling behind the speed, this John Dann-trained filly peeled off the leader’s heels and took over at the 100m mark before clearing out to win by two lengths. With a strong win over 1300m and 1400m in her last two, expect Adiella to have no problem with the extra distance and prove too good for her rivals once again.

#4 Adiella (13)
