Early mail and Blackbook File for racing on July 4.

b>ROSEHILL SATURDAY

RACE 2: (7) GEORGEY AEROPLANE: Chris Waller has him ready to peak at his third run back after two solid placings over 1500m and 1600m that have fitted him well for step up to 1900m. Nicely placed on the limit weight in this field as he is very effective in this distance range, boasts the best Rosehill record in this field where he has won three times and relishes the winter going.

RACE 6 (8) HAUSSMAN: Smart Godolphin performer indicated he was close to his best again when he finished gamely for fifth after going wide in a leader dominated 1400m event at this course on June 13. That has stood up as a strong form race and expecting him to make good improvement off that effort as he is a winner over this course and distance, drops 2kg and is drawn to enjoy a soft trail in the big field. Big value as he rates highly on his best form.

RACE 7 (1`2) SHIRAZ: There is plenty of speed in this field and that should set the race up nicely for the resuming Shiraz to get home over the top of the leaders and add to his impressive first-up record. Has shown great talent to win six of his 11 starts including three when first-up and has been well prepared to add to that record with two strong trials on soft and heavy tracks at Randwick and Hawkesbury.
