Recent Golden Rose winners
- Broadsiding ($2.15) has created history at Rosehill, being the first galloper to claim the $1 million Group 1 Golden Rose (1400m) first-up in its 46-year history. The James Cummings-trained three-year-old was heavily backed prior to the jump to suggest the son of Too Darn Hot was wound-up for the event, and the now three-time Group 1 delivered for favourite backers. James McDonald produced a patient steer aboard the superstar colt, sitting back towards the rear of the field to save every ounce of energy for the concluding stages. He was aided by a strong tempo throughout the journey, with the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained trio of Storm Boy ($5.00), Mayfair ($23.00) and Anode ($23.00) all launching across to claim the early lead. Storm Boy showed out in the final 400m but was running on empty as a wall of challengers emerged, including Broadsiding’s stable Companion Traffic Warden ($6.50), who looked to be doing enough to secure victory in his own right. Despite 105 days off the scene, it was Broadsiding getting the upper hand in the shadow of the post, however, claiming an historic victory, and giving Godolphin their first Golden Rose winner since Bivouac won the stallion making race in 2019.
- The Chris Waller-trained Militarize has produced a stunning finishing burst to claim the Group 1 Golden Rose (1400m) at Rosehill. Having caught the eye when flashing home for fifth in the Group 2 Run To The Rose (1200m) on September 9, the three-year-old Dundeel colt managed to add a third Group 1 win to his name at just his seventh start. Jockey Joao Moreira had Militarize ($6.00) settled on the fence in the second-half of the field and despite seemingly being strung pu in traffic with 200m to go, Militarize flew late to blouse Encap ($15.00) and Cylinder ($4.20) in the shadows of the winning post. The win handed the jockey/horse combination a third win from as many starts, all at Group 1 level after combining to claim the Group 1 ATC Sires’ Produces Stakes (1400m) and Group 1 Champagne Stakes (1600m) in Militarize’s two-year-old season.
- All the talk in the lead up to the 2022 Golden Rose was about the two favoured Godolphin runners, but it was the Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr-trained Jacquinot who claimed victory in the Golden Rose. Having been some ten-lengths off the leaders approaching the home turn, the three-year-old colt managed to launch down the heart of the track and get the better of race favourite In Secret in the shadows of the winning post. The win has to be seen to be believed.
- It was an upset victory in the Golden Rose at Rosehill, as In The Congo led all of the way to defeat odds on favourite Anamoe by two tenths of a length. The Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott-trained colt had never missed the quinella in his first five starts and was coming off a defeat behind Anamoe in the Run To The Rose, but the son of Snitzel was able to turn the tables in the $1 million feature. After jumping cleanly from barrier six under Tim Clark, In The Congo didn’t get over to the fence until they had already run 400m, but he was rated perfectly in front by Clark and was able to kick away at the 300m mark and put up a winning break.
- All eyes were on the one $1.55 favourite Rothfire heading into the 2020 Golden Rose Stakes, but it was Ole Kirk who stole the headlines with an impressive win. It was a massive result for the Hawkes stable as they trained the first two runners past the winning post and managed to put two lengths on their closest rival. Unfortunately for favourite backers, Rothfire failed to run a drum, with the $1.55 finishing fourth, with it later being reported that he had suffered a severe tendon injury in the run.
- Bivouac was a sure thing beaten at the 100 metre mark when Yes Yes Yes looked to have gotten the better of the Godolphin colt, before he lifted off the canvas to get up in the final strides to the joy of favourite punters to claim the 2019 Golden Rose. Amazingly, the trifecta in the Run To The Rose was the same trifecta in the Golden Rose in 2019.
- The Autumn Sun is unlucky to have tasted defeat in the past, but backers of the Chris Waller product may have been cursing the Sun once again after the champ settled at the back of the field. Nearing the turn The Autumn Sun didn’t look to be travelling all that well but the longer the straight went the harder the horse let down. In the final 100m the Autumn Sun gobbled up the opposition to record a powerful win ahead of stablemate Zousain and The Everest competitor Graff.
- Trapeze Artist was the second-rated runner for trainer Gerald Ryan, but it was clearly the best horse in the race as it cleared out for an impressive victory. Its form coming into the race looked average, but its form at the top level has always been good and that proved to be the case. Champagne Cuddles had the fitness edge and made good ground late and race favourite Menari battled on well for third. Read report here.
- Astern established itself as the class three-year-old of its year scoring by 2.25 lengths. The John O’Shea-trained colt by Medaglia D’Oro burst past runners with a big turn-of-foot and it gave James McDonald won of his biggest wins before succumbing to suspension. Included in the beaten brigade was subsequent group one winner Impending and quality filly Yankee Rose.
- Champion colt Exosphere recorded one of the easiest Golden Rose wins in history. The John O’Shea-trained runner won by 2.3 lengths over subsequent winners Speak Fondly, Sebring Sun, Ragesse, Press Statement and Holler which represented Australia at Royal Ascot in 2016. It was only a small field of eight runners, but Exosphere burst onto the scene with the win and will be remembered for it.
- In a close finish of just a long head, Hallowed Crown edged out Scissor Kick to win. The Bart and James Cummings-trained colt settled well back throughout the run and worked to the lead with under 300m to go. It held off Scissor Kick and the fast-finishing Shooting To Win and the first four all went on to handy careers. The win was one of four victories for jockey Hugh Bowman.
- Zoustar didn’t have the best run in 2013, but it pulled out a tough win over Dissident by a neck. Chris Waller lined up the champion three-year-old which had good support in the market and despite drawing barrier 16, jockey Jimmy Cassidy found a good spot in the field before it burst to the front with 200m to go and held them off. The field of 16 contained plenty of talent such as Bull Point, Cluster, Fast ‘n’ Rocking and multiple group 1 winner Criterion.
- Epaulette scored the upset win at $13 to give Peter Snowden another famous victory. The colt by Commands held off stablemate Albrecht by a head in another Golden Rose classic. The field wasn’t flush with superstars, but the win was quality and gave value punters a huge windfall.
- Another close finish was taken out by Manawanui in one of its toughest career wins. The $45,000 sales purchase proved more than its worth with the group 1 winner by holding off a stellar field. It beat home Smart Missile, Helmut, Foxwedge and Aeronautical in one of the best-quality fields in history. It won by only a short neck over Smart Missile, but it put on 3.3 lengths on Helmut.
