Orchestral the one to beat in the Vinery Stud Stakes
Orchestral has taken the New Zealand racing scene by storm this season and is set to do likewise in Australia. She won the Magic Millions 3YO, the Avondale Guineas, and the NZ Derby and now takes on the Aussies. Zardozi and Kimochi are expected to finish second and third behind Orchestral. They are rated on 107, 102, and 98 respectively with the next highest rated runner being Autumn Angel on 88. Zardozi won the Phar Lap Stakes last time while Kimochi ran third in the G1 Coolmore Classic.
