Melbourne Spring Racing Odds: Star Rolling Through Dato Tan Chin Nam
September 9th, 2014 by Pom de TurfIt’s a tough start to the 2014 Melbourne Spring campaign for Star Rolling, but the Dato Tan Chin Nam Stakes at the weekend will give punters, pundits and his handlers a decent idea of where he’s going to fall in the Racing odds for the big races of the Festival, which could include the Cox Plate for the exciting 5-year-old.
He’s looking like he’ll be one of the horses with the shortest odds beside his name for the Dato Tan Chin Nam, too – and one who’s well worth keeping an eye on. He scored some good wins last year, and he’s already tasted victory in 2014, so he’ll be looking to start the 2014 Melbourne Spring well in the hope of picking up some good momentum before a tilt at the Cox Plate – and that is likely to be the target race for Star Rolling this year, though it sounds like trainer Peter Morgan hasn’t set his plans in stone just yet: ‘it’s a long campaign. I don’t think we’re going to the Cups with him, he’ll run Saturday then go the Underwood and then we’ll decide what we’re going to do. If we can win the Underwood or something like that then of course we’re going to be in the Cox Plate.’
So, as ever, it’s a case of keeping an eye on those Racing odds for Star Rolling, and keeping track of where he’s heading through the 2014 Melbourne Spring – he could be a real prospect!
