Australia’s favourite racing newspaper, with full form guides for at least 12 meetings from Friday to Sunday, plus fields/colours/tips for other TAB meetings, plenty of great reading, stats, crossword, trivia quiz and more. This week, the purists' day has arrived, and the biggest Australian racing crowd of the year will be on course at Flemington for Victoria Derby day. As always on this day, the three-year-olds take centre stage, not only in the derby itself but in the Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes for the sprinters. In the other Group 1, the miler mares match motors in the Empire Rose. The day's richest race, however, is at Randwick, where the cream of our four-year-old sprinter/milers battle for $10 million in the Golden Eagle. Other highlights include the $3 million Russell Balding Stakes, the $750,000 Rosehill Gold Cup and the $500,000 Four Pillars Midway for provincial horses and smaller city stables. Meanwhile the Perth carnival continues to ramp up with the Prince of Wales and the Asian Beau. Sunday is Peninsula Cup day at Mornington and we've got a full form guide for that meeting and Muswellbrook.
