Premier Sydney jockey Hugh Bowman has been booked to ride Tulip (Pierro) for the first time in the Gr.2 Tea Rose Stakes (1400m) at Randwick on Saturday.
The Lindsay Park-trained and Coolmore raced filly won the Gr.3 Magic Night Stakes (1200m) in March and is set to face 11 rivals in the A$200,000 Group Two.
Sold through Curraghmore’s 2016 NZB draft, Tulip was a last start second at Moonee Valley in August and will jump from barrier four on Saturday.
