Randwick-Kensington Race 1

Anamoe First Yearlings Mdn Plate

Prize Money: $60,000

The unraced runners hold the key to this race, headed by ASTRONOMIX (1) who was a comfortable Randwick trial winner over 1050m on 30 December. Worth noting that McDonald takes the mount - his strike rate for the O'Shea/Charlton yard sits at an impressive 32%. CHARLINA (5) is the pick of the runners with race experience. Lunged late but just missed when resuming over this distance at Gosford last start. That was a career-high figure so she is back better than ever. APPIN OPAL (4) is a first starter by Exceedance from the good race mare Sarthemare who has produced three black-type winners from her six foals to race. Recent trial winner who looks to have inherited that talent. The Waterhouse/Bott-trained FARFETCHED (6) is a debutante by Farnan from a More Than Ready mare who has thrown six individual winners. Won a trial at Randwick on 30 December so she is no slouch. MUSCLE BEACH (3) was fair first-up at Kembla. One for the wider exotics.

Three-year-old gelding (Calyx - Waimea Bay) who was bought for AUD $ 70,000 (Inglis 2024 Classic Yearling Sale). Won his most recent trial at Randwick over 1050m on December 30. Looks well above average and is a great chance to make an immediate breakthrough.

Third race start. First start sat on the speed throughout before fading second last of 8 at this track 2yo C&G Osc on June 25 over 1100m, on a slow track; 12 len behind Raging Force carrying 56.5kg at $26. Went for a break before returning 3rd of 9 at Kembla Grange Mid Mdn-Sw on January 3 over 1000m, slow going 4.5 len behind Exfortythree carrying 57.5kg at $5.50. Fair effort on that occasion but this looks much harder - one for the exotics.

Second run back. First-up after five months came from midfield; 2nd of 7 at Gosford Mid 3yo Mdn-Sw on December 31 over 1000m, nose behind Kiss Goodnight with 55kg at $2.05. Previously second-up 4th of 9 at Gosford Prov Mdn-Sw on July 19 over 1000m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Valilee with 56kg at $8. Fitter for that last outing and looks sure to run well.

Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott trained three-year-old filly lining up for first race start and was purchased for AUD $ 500,000 (Inglis 2024 Australian Easter Yearling Sale). Scored at her latest trial. Good draw will assist chances. Draws the fence and looks well placed to play a big role.

Racing first-up today. Finished off last campaign second last of 9 at Kembla Grange Super Mdn September 13 over 1200m, on heavy track; 12 len behind Master Of The Air carrying 56kg at $11. On debut fifth of 7 at Canterbury 2&3yo F Mdn July 23 over 1200m, soft track; 3.5 len behind Kerber with 56.5kg at $10. Likely to need this outing.
