Rosehill Race 2 - Cactus Imaging Mdn Hcp
SHANTI (13) showed abundant natural pace on debut last start over 1100m at Hawkesbury then found plenty under siege only to miss out in a three-way thriller. Sure to derive great benefit from that experience and should give backers a tremendous sight again. BARRACKS (2) last appeared when fourth in the Listed Dalrello over 1000m at Eagle Farm five months ago. Came to hand quickly in the maiden prep and two strong recent trials should have him forward enough for this. AFFARI (18) overcame an awkward start to get up for a close second recently over 1250m at Canterbury, her third runner-up cheque from as many runs this time in work. Can go one better from a nice draw with J Mac taking over. Waller's Zoustar debutante BRAVIRA (10) won a recent trial here and looks to have ability. Another debutant is stablemate GERYON (4) who is a full brother to the Group 2 winner Chrysaor. Went well in a recent Warwick Farm trial so a bright start looks on the cards.

Dual acceptor. Three-year-old filly (Zoustar - Too Good Too Hard) will no doubt benefit from the four trials leading in today's debut. Won a barrier trial at Rosehill over 900m September 22. Looks ready to run well.

At debut, held ground to the line 3rd of 11 in a F&M Mdn-Sw at Hawkesbury on September 10 over 1100m, nose behind Pailleron carrying 55.5kg at $11. Should take a lot from that experience and looks a winning hope.

Dual acceptor. Form hard to fault. Most recently 2nd of 8 in a 3yo Mdn at Canterbury on September 16 over 1250m, 0.6 len behind Saffron Veil carrying 56.5kg at $10. The race before that 2nd in a small field in a Super Mdn at Canterbury on August 26 over 1250m, slow going 1.2 len behind Piedmont carrying 56kg at $2.35. Racing too well to be a maiden for much longer.
