Nominations in for San Domenico Stakes day at Rosehill
Some more of the youngsters that were right at the pointy end of the juvenile ranks are nominated for Rosehill on Saturday on a day of 3yo features.
The G3 San Domenico Stakes (1100m) is a kick off for several of those such as Don Corleone ($11) who ran in all the G1s in Sydney and Melbourne.
There is also Barber ($8) on his return, Corniche ($8) who beat the Slipper winner before a spell and Kandinsky Abstract ($6) who was so impressive on debut.
Also those who have had the run back such as Cigar Flick ($6), The Instructor ($4.50) and Introducing ($8) take plenty of attention.
Over slightly longer, the G3 Up And Coming Stakes (1300m) contains some who probably look to step up in trip in time. They include the huge Cafe Millenium ($15), Fernhill winner Tom Kitten ($6) and the filly Tutta La Vita ($11).
As well, the card contains some good horses resuming. Tulloch Lodge has a couple of stayers who may run first up in Hoo Ya Mal and Sir Lucan with Cups on their minds, while Adrian Knox winner Arts is also down to run.
