Early mail and best exotic plays for Rosehill on January 4.

ROSEHILL SATURDAY

RACE 4: (4) THE ALFONSO: Left his run to late last start over 1400m at Randwick when he just failed to run down Frespanol and it was no surprise rider was questioned about tactics. God winner at previous start over 1250m at Canterbury and looks to have an ideal preparation for the step up to 1500m. We face the usual Chris Waller conundrum of multiple runners but he looks the one well placed at the weights.

RACE 5 (5) SHIVARCHI: Most unlucky not to have won his last start when he picked himself up from a nasty check midrace to finish fast for third over 100m on the Kensington track on December 20, continuing a good run of form in his three starts since resuming. Expect to see him ridden cold with plenty of pace on top suit his strong finish. Can blouse them if race run to suit.
