Avilius only has to back up to take this out. He’s $1.60 in the 2019 HE Tancred Stakes (2400m) at Rosehill on Saturday.

2019 HE TANCRED STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Far from a vintage renewal of the Tancred Stakes with this shaping more as a Sydney Cup lead up, as opposed to the WFA grand final it once was. Expect an even tempo in the capacity field.

AVILIUS (1) bounced back in a big way last weekend when a class above in the Ranvet Stakes. Powered through the going there and this is easier. The big question mark remains as to whether he is as good at 2400m and whether he can back it up seven days later. If he does, he wins, simple.

RED CARDINAL (3) is progressing well for the Kris Lees stable and while this is a lot harder, he deserves his chance.

BIG DUKE (8) closed off well last weekend and that should give him the perfect platform for this. Likely to get back, but watch for him late. ACE HIGH (13) needs a firm track, but still cannot be ignored.

Godolphin's talented British-bred stayer Avilius is now the winner of eight of his last 11 starts and followed up his victory in the Ranvet Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m) here on March 23 to clinch a second Group 1 win here. He settled well in seventh place, between runners, tracked up (deep) from the 600m, swept to the front approaching the 200m and then drew away to win easily, running the 2400m out strongly. Kris Lees-trained, Irish-bred Big Duke raced back in tenth place, on the rails, improved (between runners) from the 600m, went to third at the 200m and kept battling on well for second. New Zealand-trained mare Rondinella settled in fifth place, moved up nicely from the 600m, hit the front on straightening and then battled gamely for a good third at her first Australian start. German-bred stayer Sound, who was having his fourth Australian starts, raced in sixth place (on the rails), was shuffled back coming to the home turn, went deeper on turning for home and kept making ground for (6 lengths) fourth.
