A tough test for Serenade Rose

Lee Freedman, her trainer, does not expect her to win the Group Two 1400- meter. It will be her first test at weight-for-age against all-comers. But he sure expects a great race from Serenade Rose in the Craiglee Stakes over 1600- meter at Flemington on September 9.

Serenade Rose is the best three-year-old of last season after eight wins, all against her own age and sex.

Now Freedman wants to see her performance as a four-year-old against open company. Steven King will be her jockey; like he was the last six wins last season.
