There's a massive weekend coming up in Australian racing, headed by the return of Group 1 night racing and the first million-dollar race of the spring.

The main event is the $1 million Golden Rose at Rosehill, where impressive Queenslander Rothfire will be looking to repeat his Run to the Rose heroics but will have plenty of opposition from the home team. The Golden Pendant, Shannon Stakes, Gloaming Stakes, Heritage Stakes and Colin Stephen Quality round out a massive card.

Meanwhile at Caulfield it's Underwood day, with the Group 1 middle-distance race supported by the Testa Rossa and the Guineas Preludes.

The Queensland metro action heads to Toowoomba for Toowoomba Cup/Guineas/Weetwood day.

The night before, the speedsters match motors at The Valley in the Group 1 Moir Stakes. 

You'll find Australia's best form guide for Saturday's Caulfield, Rosehill, Toowoomba and Morphettville meetings in this week's Best Bets, plus full coverage of Friday night at The Valley.

On pages 4 and 5 you'll find four-state selections from some of the nation's leading form analysts as well as our popular Black Bookers, Sectional Stars and Video Stars features.
