Flemington Finals Race Day

WINTER RACE SERIES

TAJ ROSSI SERIES FINAL

This series takes in heats at Mornington, Bendigo, Sandown, Swan Hill and Flemington and targets later-developing two-year- olds who are more suited to the longer distances of 1600m. Named in honour of the Bart Cummings-trained colt, Taj Rossi. He was purchased in 1972 at the Adelaide Yearling Sales for $18,000 (top price) and then sold to prominent owner Victor Peters. As a three-year-old, he won seven of his eleven starts including races such as the Ascot Vale Stakes, Moonee Valley Stakes, W.S. Cox Plate, Victoria Derby, George Adams Hcp and Sandown Guineas. He was named Racehorse of the Year for the 1973-74 season.
