THE ROSE ROOM SPRINT
Results
A return to Flemington for RENOSU (1) could be all important. His form down the straight is terrific, winning on Cup Day and splitting a couple of smart ones two back. Plain in Adelaide last time but the tongue tie goes on now which might give us a clue as to what happened there. He can bounce back. Big watch on the resuming MIDTOWN BOSS (9) who showed real talent last campaign. If he has come on since then he can make his mark in better races than this. AIRMAN (2) won nicely on the Kensington track first up and switches south with some purpose. ZOU SENSATION (10) also fronts up here with purpose. A long way of his best first up but he is freshened and has the blinkers reapplied. His best form came here in the early spring and it certainly reads well at this level.
