This week in Winning Post

This week's Winning Post will be available online here from 3pm AEDT Thursday.

The Group 1 focus turns to Sydney this Saturday as the Golden Slipper carnival kicks off with Coolmore Classic day at Rosehill. Godolphin mare Cinsault will be hard to beat in the Group 1 mares'  race while the support acts at Rosehill include the Phar Lap Stakes for three-year-olds, the Ajax Stakes and the Maurice McCarten, plus the Pago Pago and Magic Night for two-year-olds chasing a last-minute Slipper ticket.

In Melbourne the action is at Caulfield for the rich VOBIS owners' and breeders' day. The $1 million VOBIS Platinum Showdown for two-year-olds, the $500,000 VOBIS Platinum Guineas for three-year-olds, the $500,000 Peter Young Stakes and the $250,000 Country Mile Final are the highlights.

The rich QTIS Jewels are up for grabs as Queensland metro racing returns to the Gold Coast.

There's black-type action for the three-year-olds at Ascot, with the running of the Natasha Stakes and the J.C. Roberts, while Sunday is Yarra Valley Cup day and Country Championships Qualifier day at Coonamble.

Our form coverage kicks off on Friday with a full guide to the Pakenham night meeting plus Launceston in the Tassie edition and fields/colours/tips/overviews for all the other TAB action.

The metro racing this Saturday is at Caulfield in Melbourne, Rosehill in Sydney, Morphettville Parks in Adelaide, Gold Coast in Queensland and Ascot in Perth.

Winning Post carries full-colour liftout guides for all those meetings plus Geelong (Vic/SA edition), Gosford (NSW edition) and Ipswich (Qld edition), as well as fields, tips, ratings and/or colours for other TAB Saturday cards.

On Sunday we've got liftout formguides for three more TAB meetings as well as fields, ratings, tips and colours for a stack more Sunday and Monday programs.

Don't forget Winning Post now carries trackwork reports for four Victorian training tracks, three in Sydney, Morphettville in Adelaide and a general Brisbane report.

Away from the form, we've got news columns from NSW, six Victorian districts, SA and Tasmania.

Our readers have their say on page 4, while further back in the book Shane Templeton reminisces, Paul Richards presents his unique take on the sport, Tony Kneebone brings you his Snippets column and Number Cruncher delivers the stats that matter.
