10 NEWS FIRST RED ROSES STAKES
Results
ENGLISH RIVIERA (2) didn't have things go to plan for her in a couple but she dug in and won well under a red-hot Blake Shinn around Caulfield last time and that looks the standout piece of form on offer here. GREECE (18) has always been held in high regard. Smart stable sent her to the key fillies Slipper trial for her debut and she started in the market there. Didn't fire on wet ground and has been kept away from heavy tracks since. Won like the smart one many fancy she is first up and looks capable of mixing it here if the sun shines. TROACH (6) was below her best last time but not beaten far and should run well. BAY THIRTEEN (12) and BOUND FOR HOME (4) can be considered for multiples.
