Flemington’s Melbourne Cup carnival reaches its crescendo on Saturday with a trio of mouth-watering Group 1 races, however Nic Ashman is looking at Rosehill for his best bet.
Rosehill R8 N7 MILITARIZE
“Group 1 winner that’s been out of sorts but found some form in a high rating race last start won by LINDERMANN where he finished 2nd,” Ashman said.
“LINDERMANN has been posting solid figures while winning all the second tier races in Sydney.
“Ratings indicate he could’ve been thereabouts in a Cox Plate which bodes well for us here.
“Joao Moreira has a terrific record on MILITARIZE (4:3-0-0) and they should get this race run to suit.”
The top price around for MILITARIZE as of Friday afternoon was $6.
Nic’s tips are striking at 54% since the beginning of 2024 with 30 collects from 56 selections.
