Joe Pride is weighing up a start in the Rosehill Gold Cup for “Rocket” stayer Anthracite, and hoping for a group 1 campaign in the autumn, after his tough effort to hold off Barrengarry at Rosehill.

Jett-powered hope for Four Pillars

The five-year-old won the benchmark 72 Midway handicap comfortably, giving him a first victory since taking out a similar race at the track in January.

Pilkington was looking to the Four Pillars in three weeks and hoped Alabama State got only a four-point benchmark bump for the half-length win, which would give him 61kg for the race with Newman’s claim.

“He wouldn’t have got into the benchmark 88 next week, so I kind of had to run,” Pilkington said.
asserted
Pilkington → get → benchmark
“I was afraid he was going to go and get his benchmark up when it’s been coming down nicely, but anyway, you’ve got to let him have his chance.
