Lucia Valentina’s stablemate and Randwick Guineas winner Le Romain trialled impressively in an earlier 845m-heat, finishing second under a tight hold from Mathew Scorse.

Le Romain is on a path towards the Epsom Handicap.

The two are scheduled to resume on August 20 with Lucia Valentina expected to take on Winx in the Warwick Stakes (1400m) and Le Romain to run in the Show County Quality (1200m).
