Saturday Racing @ Flemington

Dour enough for two miles? - Sabor A Triunfo lines up in the Listed Andrew Ramsden Stakes

Exciting racing at Flemington this weekend, a long-distance feature and the Winter Championships adding interest to the Winter off-season.

LUMOSTY is one of the shorter-priced favourites in Race 6, the Listed Straight Six. REPARATIONS, PAGO ROCK or AERONAUTICAL all have a tough job to turn the tables on the classy filly.

The Listed Andrew Ramsden Stakes in Race 7 sees the stayers tackle 3,200 metres. Dour and lean gallopers like SONNTAG and SABOR A TRIUNFO take on the little battler SHOREHAM over the Melbourne Cup distance.

Race 8 is a heat of the Winter Championship series. GRACIOUS PROSPECT and RUNNING BULL set a good benchmark, while MR UTOPIA, TRIED AND TIRED and HOSTING are ready to fire over 1,400 metres.

PYRROLIC will hold many tickets in the last leg of the quaddie in Race 9 over 1,700 metres after he dominated his rivals last start in similar grade.
