Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 27 Journalists Share Posted March 27 The 2024 Tancred Stakes, one of Sydney’s premier autumn features, takes centre stage at Rosehill this Saturday with a field of ten ready to battle it out for the $1.5 million purse.

Leading the charge is the impressive UK-trained Post Impressionist. William Haggas‘ Teofilo gelding wasted no time making his mark down under, cruising to a dominant victory in the Group 3 N.E. Manion Cup last weekend over the same 2400m distance. Returning to familiar territory with jockey Tom Marquand aboard, Post Impressionist is the clear favourite at $2.35 through Ladbrokes and firming further. Despite the small Tancred Stakes field, several horses pose a threat to the favourite. Chris Waller saddles two runners with the imported Buckaroo ($4.80) and More Felons ($11) in his bid at a third Tancred Stakes victory. Buckaroo, coming off a close third in the Group 1 Ranvet Stakes here last weekend, steps up in distance but remains a danger. More Felons, a dour stayer with a Melbourne Cup run under his belt, is a value pick at $11 after his recent win in the Listed Parramatta Cup. Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott‘s Military Mission ($9) and Godolphin‘s Group 1 winning youngster Tom Kitten ($6.50) are other contenders worth watching. Military Mission, another Melbourne Cup performer, should improve over the longer distance. Tom Kitten, the lone three-year-old in the field, is seeking a return to form after a string of placings. With a weight drop and a talented jockey in Jamie Kah, he shouldn’t be discounted. The Tancred Stakes is set for race eight at Rosehill on Saturday (4:35 PM AEST). 2024 Tancred Stakes Field No Last 10 Horse Trainer Jockey Barrier Weight Probable Weight Penalty Hcp Rating 1 143x275x53 BUCKAROO (GB) Chris Waller Tommy Berry 7 59kg 110 2 2014101×35 MILITARY MISSION (IRE) Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott Adam Hyeronimus 10 59kg 108 3 10x7624x41 ASHRUN (FR) Ciaron Maher Jason Collett 1 59kg 107 4 5x728x50x1 MORE FELONS (IRE) Chris Waller James McDonald 2 59kg 104 5 31x09791x1 POST IMPRESSIONIST (IRE) William Haggas Tom Marquand 3 59kg 104 6 x380x00x31 GEAR UP (IRE) Annabel Neasham Nash Rawiller 6 59kg 103 7 3L73310x02 KALAPOUR (IRE) Kris Lees Dylan Gibbons (a) 5 59kg 103 8 15232674×2 BOIS D’ARGENT (GB) Annabel Neasham Chad Schofield 4 59kg 102 9 9911872×64 ATHABASCAN (FR) John O’Shea Tyler Schiller 11 59kg 99 10 335112×854 LITTLE MIX Annabel Neasham Joshua Parr 8 57kg 96 11 13321×6546 TOM KITTEN James Cummings Ms Jamie Kah 9 54kg 100 Table Credit: Racing Australia.
