Rosehill Gardens Racing Tips for 3 August 2024

It’s on again at Rosehill Gardens. Saturday’s ten-race program looks action-packed, and with rain on the forecast, it’s likely we’ll be racing on a heavy surface. Here are our top picks.

Best Bet: Lady Boss

Race 1

How about a horse that’s never missed a top three finish in a five start career? That’s Lady Boss, a four-year-old bay mare trained by Ciaron Maher, and she’s our pick for the Jockeys Appreciation Handicap BM72 over 1,500m. Lady Boss has given us nothing short of consistent form and resilience. Recently, she achieved a decisive victory over 1,250m at Canterbury and secured third place last start at Randwick, in spite of a difficult wide gate and three-deep travel. Plus, with an impressive 234% return on investment for punters who have backed her, Lady Boss is poised to make a strong showing in the opening race.

Next Best: Intervarsity

Race 4

Intervarsity is a four-year-old brown mare from the stables of Paul Messara and Leah Gavranich. She’s our second pick of the day, racing the TAB Highway Handicap Class 3 over 1,200m. Over her two race appearances, she hasn’t been beat. There’s no questioning her capabilities, with dominant victories over 1,280m at Muswellbrook. Coming into this race off a powerful 1,000m trial win, Intervarsity is set to place under the talented James McDonald.

Best Value: Spring Lee

Race 7

For those looking for value, Spring Lee, a four-year-old bay mare trained by Bjorn Baker, is an excellent choice in the Jockeys Celebration Day Handicap BM78. Earlier this year, she took out a commanding win over 1,100m and followed up with a credible second-place finish in stakes company. As a consistent first-up performer with two wins from three starts, she looks prepared after a recent 900m trial where she finished well ahead of the competition. Rachel King will feature in the saddle, giving Spring Lee strong potential for an upset.
