A big future predicted for Rosecutter
When Randwick trainer John O’Shea makes a big statement you should take notice and they way he spoke about Rosecutter after her sparkling victory in the STC Members Golf Day Handicap over 1100m suggests you should stick solid.
”She’s always been a stakes class horse,” O’Shea said.
”She works as good as any filly I’ve trained.
”She’s strengthened right up this preparation and we’ll just work through the grades but I’m sure she’ll hit the target sooner or later.”
When the field was released Darren Beadman jagged Rosecutter straight back to last from her outside draw and the tempo up front was hot with Mystical Magic and Hennessy Beau leading the way.
On straightening Hennessy Beau took over but in a matter of strides Rosecutter started to let rip down the outside and charged to the front, quickly putting the issue beyond doubt with Lidiana working home strongly for second after being slow to begin.
”She’s got a bit of quality about her,” jockey Darren Beadman said.
”She works with you and she’s got gears.
”She’s better than a midweek class horse.”
Rosecutter 55.5kg ($3.50 SP) (D.Beadman) defeated Lidiana 57kg ($6.50 SP) (L.Cassidy) by three and three quarter lengths with Hennessy Beau 54.5kg ($9 SP) (J.Taylor) three quarters of a length away in third.
The time for the race was 1.06.18 and the last 600m was run in 37.11.
Rosecutter is another promising horse by champion stallion Redoute’s Choice out of the Bellotto (USA) mare Belle Bellotto.
