Thousand Guineas

The Nominations for the 2011 Thousand Guineas at Caulfield have been released, with a total of 223 fillies indicating that they will target the race.

David Hayes has the strongest hand of any trainer with a total of 21 nominations. All of them are unraced, however Hayes has a reputation for bringing fresh three year olds to the Melbourne Spring Carnival only for them to surprise everyone.

Elite Falls was the top rated two year old filly in Australia last year, and John O’Shea is hoping her form will carry into her three year old year, as he has nominated her for the 2011 Thousand Guineas.

Pane in the Glass was also a very consistnent performer in her two year old season, and Patinack Farm trainer John Thompson will chase Group One glory when he lines up the talented filly in the 2011 Thousand Guineas.

After running second in the Golden Slipper earlier in the year, Mosheen is one of the few horses that has been nominated for both the Caulfield and Thousand Guineas. However it is believed that her trainer Robert Smerdon prefers the 2011 Thousand Guineas as a more realistic option.

Peter Snowden has nominated a strong team for the 2011 Thousand Guineas, including Aerobatics, Anise, Cliques, Disputes and half a dozen fillies who are yet to start in a race.
