Rosehill Preview: Best Of Bordeaux Back
4 years ago - Sportingbase
The return to racing of the brilliant Best Of Bordeaux in the Group 3 San Domenico Stakes (1100 metres) will be the highlight of Saturday’s Rosehill program.
As a two-year-old colt the son of Snitzel won the Group 3 Canobury Stakes and then the Group 2 Silver Slipper Stakes at his first two starts.
He then finished second to Fireburn in the Golden Slipper Stakes to be regarded as Australia’s best two-year-old colt.
Subsequently, Coolmore Stud have bought the controlling interest in his ownership.
He has impressed in his two trials, the latest on August 12 when the Kacy Fodgen trained sprinter won over 1000 metres at Rosehill.
Each time he has been ridden by James McDonald who will ride on Saturday. TopSport has him as a $2.35 favourite.

No Golden Slipper placegetter has won the San Domenico since Snitzerland in 2012.
James Cummings has Spacewalk in the race. He finished a first-up second to Zoukerino, who is also in the San Domenico Stakes, in the Rosebud at Rosehill on August 13.
Cummings said Spacewalk had improved from that run and had tightened up nicely.
“The run was excellent without winning, but now he’s coming up against even stronger opposition,” Cummings said.
“I think the horse is going to need to have gone ahead, but he’s flying, so it’s going to be an interesting test for the horse.”
