Sir Bacchus Picture: Racing and Sports

ZEROING IN

We go about finding a weekend special from a statistical angle.

Rosehill Race 5 - 1 Sir Bacchus

Handy sprinter from the Chris Waller stable who returned in a big way last start when finishing a close third behind Cradle Mountain.

While it was fence in running that day, he was a clear sectional star and it was as good as he's ever gone first up.

Really like the decision by Waller to keep him in this grade, barring his last start effort, this is the first time he's raced at this level since September 2016.

Likely to be spotting them all a start, however there looks to be good speed engaged and if they are able to make up good ground, he should prove hard to hold out late.
