Caulfield Guineas victor, Press Statement, is right on track for a successful Autumn campaign.

He will open his account in the time honoured Hobartville Stakes on Saturday week, followed up by the Guineas at Royal Randwick.

It could be in the balance if he goes to stud as a four year old, or waits for another year to fit Royal Ascot into his itinerary.

Whilst Royal Ascot is a prestigious event it gives an entire enormous exposure on the world stage, if he happens to win at the Royal fixture, he would be readily accepted on the shuttle service.

Press Statement has a pretty good record, five wins to date of which two were at Group 1 level.

The Group 2 Hobartville Stakes is among the oldest races run in Sydney, named after a long standing stud overlooking the rich flats, where the Grose River joins the Nepean to become the Hawkesbury.
