Key Factors: Country Championships

Published: 26 Mar 2016

It's the last chance for Country Championships contenders to stake their claim for the big prize-money on offer today at Muswellbrook. Only two spots remain for the final at Royal Randwick, setting it up to be a fiercly competitive race.

Two big distance questions are posed of the favourites ROSE OF MAN (can she see out 1,280 metres?) and SHUTTER BUG (is this distance too short?). Their class will take them a long way, but it all could come down to luck in running around the circular country track.

The dry track, distance and speed map are all factored in to the team's analysis below.
