looking to add to Baker’s big spring

Bjorn Baker-trained (El Roca) resumed with a win this campaign and heads to Saturday’s G1 Epsom Handicap for the in-form stable. “I think she is back to her best. She has got 50kg and a run under her belt,” Baker told racenet.com.au.

“She will be able to put herself up on speed, she has a flexible racing pattern so can sit off them too. The draw is what it is, I'd have preferred her to draw two or three, but we can't change what we've got. History shows wide draws are not the worst thing in big Randwick miles and she's got the speed to offset it with a lightweight.”

Bred by Gerry Harvey, was a $190,000 RTR purchase for Phill Cataldo/Bjorn Baker Racing /Clarke Bloodstock/OTI Racing and has a full brother entered for November's sale as Lot 66.

Good luck to OTI Racing, Bjorn Baker Racing, and .
