Tancred Stakes March 25th, Tips and Previews
Best Bet - Tancred Stakes
1
Gold Trip $4.00
Gold Trip is ready to fire on the quick backup.
He ran home quickly off a slow tempo, and the 2400m Saturday looks ideal third-up from a spell.
The Melbourne Cup Winner doesn’t know how to run a bad race and has been well-backed since markets opened.
Mark Zahra will drift back with the big boy as the gates open, and if he can stay in touch through the middle stages, he will prove too vital for his rivals late.
A slowly run race is the biggest concern.

Montefilia $4.80
Montefilia is ready to explode third-up from a spell.
She was brilliant at her latest outing behind a smart galloper and gets out to her preferred journey on Saturday.
Her performance in last year’s Caulfield Cup was a beauty, and I can’t forget her win over Verry Elleegant in the Ranvet.
Her best form puts her in the finish, and she is too consistent to leave out of all winning conversations.
If the predicted rain lands at Rosehill, she will grow another leg and be crunched in betting.
Barrier nine is the primary concern.
Best Roughie - Tancred Stakes
10
King Frankel $13/$3.70
King Frankel can bounce back after a plain second-up performance.
He got too far back in the run and hit a flat spot at a crucial stage of the race.
The Frankel gelding strips fitter and his third-up record must be respected.
