KING'S ROSE takes 1000 GuineasThe Group 1 New Zealand Bloodstock 1000 Guineas saw KING'S ROSE down a talented field of three year old fillies to take honors at Riccarton on Saturday. Racing wide throughout, Opie Bosson took the Jason Bridgman trained KING'S ROSE to the centre of the track in the home straight and set out after the leaders. 200 meters out Bosson and King's Rose really got to work, taking the lead and fighting off MAGIC BRIAR to win the Group 1 feature by three quarters of a length. The race was not without controversy as an incident in the straight saw a number of fillies including WE CAN SAY IT NOW, TWILIGHT SAVINGS and MAGIC BRIAR all being affected. The protest was upheld resulting in MAGIC BRIAR being relegated from second to fifth with TWILIGHT SAVINGS and SMOULDER being promoted to second and third. The win gave Jason Bridgeman his first Group 1 success Media Images![]() |
