Group 1 awaits exciting sprinter
SATURDAY 4.02PM
With a spot in The Everest locked in (for two years), emerging sprinter Mazu can justify the confidence of his slotholders by winning the Group 1 Doomben 10,000 (1200m) at Eagle Farm. Mazu, unbeaten in four starts during the Sydney autumn, takes on five individual Group 1 winners Shelby Sixtysix, Vega One, Rothfire, Kementari and Entriviere in the field of 15. Vega One is joined by Isotope, Baller and Zoustyle for leading Queensland trainer Tony Gollan. Last-start Victory Stakes winner Count De Rupee is the main danger.
