Flemington Racecourse really does see some major events during the Spring Racing Carnival, doesn’t it? It’s Derby Day at Flemington on Saturday and then, of course, in just a couple days, it’s the Melbourne Cup. Soak it all up while you can, it doesn’t get much better than this!
The feature race on Derby Day is the Victoria Derby, but we also see two other Group One races at the track, the Coolmore Stud Stakes and the Empire Rose Stakes. Looking elsewhere, we also see The Golden Eagle, the Russell Balding Stakes and the Rosehill Gold Cup, which all take place in Sydney on Saturday.
My Saturday tips have arrived at OnlyRacing and I have a set of tips for all six races mentioned above, but for this article in particular, I’m going through the Coolmore Stud Stakes. A field of 14 line up for the Coolmore Stud Stakes and I have got my best bets, just for you.
