It’s been a frustrating season for Wyong-based apprentice Anna Roper with injury seeing her sidelined for a number of months.

Punters lost a bit of faith in Godolphin galloper Tamerlane prior to his upset Winter Stakes win but jockey Zac Lloyd is more than happy to trust he can repeat the dose at Rosehill on Saturday.

Lee Curtis believes Ilovenews is more than capable of knocking off his maiden this Thursday at Kembla Grange but the Rosehill trainer admits his confidence will likely grow as the lightly-raced talent's preparation progresses.

As their partnership nears the end, Peter and Paul Snowden celebrate a second Guineas for Xidaki.

Godolphin filly Dipsy Doodle is the most favoured of Zac Lloyd’s seven rides at Randwick.
