2017 The BMW Results: Jameka Wins

The 2017 BMW results will be updated throughout the afternoon at horseracing.com.au and you can stay up to date withal the action.

The rain has continued to fall in Sydney this weekend and the Rosehill Gardens track is in the heavy range once again, but we saw on Golden Slipper Day that horses can still win from anywhere on the track.

The BMW is the feature race and only has eight horses left following the scratching of Our Ivanhowe, but it is still set to be a highly competitive betting affair and there is very little separating Jameka, Tavago and Humidor in the betting market with Ladbrokes.

The Vinery Stud Stakes is the other Group 1 event on the card and Foxplay ($3.40) is currently a narrow favourite, but there has been plenty of support for Dawn Wall ($4.40) and Harlow Gold ($5.50).

There are plenty of other key races this weekend as we builds towards The Championships that get underway next Saturday and you can find all the results below.

Montoya’s Secret held-off a flying Nurse Kitchen to claim victory in an action-packed edition of the 2017 Vinery Stud Stakes.

It always looked like an open edition of the Vinery Stud Stakes and that proved to be the case and there were eight possible winners with 200 left to run.

Nurse Kitchen stormed down the outside and looked like the winner, but Montoya’s Secret exploded from the pack late to record easily the biggest win of her racing career to date.

Jameka claimed a third Group 1 victory with a scintillating performance in the 2017 The BMW at Rosehill Gardens this afternoon.

Brenton Avdulla attempted to replicate his Crown Oaks win on Lasqueti Spirit in The BMW and she opened up a massive lead in the early stages of the race.

Jameka was forced to cart the field up to Lasqueti Spirit and she found the lead a long way from home, but it was not an issue and she relished the 2400 metres to claim a most impressive victory.

Jon Snow stamped himself as a genuine 2017 Australian Derby contender with a strong victory in the Tulloch Stakes.

Jon Snow went into the Tulloch Stakes as a clear favourite following his tough third in the New Zealand Derby and he always looked like the winner.

Spectroscope will head to the 2017 Doncaster Mile next weekend after he recorded an impressive win in the Doncaster Prelude at Rosehill Gardens this afternoon.

Corey Brown settled Spectroscope at the tail of the field in the early stages of the Doncaster Prelude and he looked as though he may be blocked for a run at the top of the straight.

Spectroscope took a couple of narrow gaps and when he eventually found clear running he was able to race away from his rivals to stamp himself as a genuine Doncaster Mile contender.

  • 1st: Spectroscope
  • 2nd: No Doubt
  • 3rd: Marenostro

Lloyd Williams-owned Assign outstayed his rivals to return to winning form in the 2017 Neville Sellwood Stakes at Rosehill Gardens this afternoon.

Classic Uniform ensured that there was plenty of early speed in the Neville Sellwood Stakes and the race turned into a genuine slog in the straight.

Single Gaze and Astronomos both loomed on the outside, but Assign kept on finding the line and fought off his rivals to score a tough way.

  • 1st: Assign
  • 2nd: Astronomos
  • 3rd: Single Gaze
