Punters came for Smart Missile in the Run To The Rose at Rosehill, backing him from $2.30 into $1.75. The Anthony Cummings-trained 3YO swept to victory in the shadows of the post to overhaul Foxwedge, who also had his supporters. Bets of $21,000 @ $1.75, $15,000 @ $1.70, $10,000 @ $1.20 (place), $5,300 @ $1.70 were among those on Smart Missile.
