Trainer John Wallace happily admits he doesn't know how Shoot Out's rivals are going to turn the tables on him in Saturday's Group One Rosehill Guineas.

"They've got to beat him, that's the point," Wallace said.

The exciting three-year-old will meet a similar field to the one he downed in the Randwick Guineas (1600m) two weeks ago.

Of the 11 runners on Saturday only three - Rock Classic, Extra Zero and Saint Encosta - did not contest the first leg of Sydney's three-year-old triple crown.

Shoot Out was a slashing winner of the Randwick feature after looking a forlorn chance halfway up the straight when he ran into trouble.

But once clear the Queensland gelding charged home to score an against-the-odds win and while there might have been excuses for some of the beaten brigade, none was less entitled to win than him.

"He was in a bit of trouble wasn't he?" Wallace said of the Randwick Guineas.

"But I knew if he got into the clear he would win.

"He had to overcome a bit."

The Rosehill Guineas is an extra 400 metres but Shoot Out is bred to relish the trip.

He is by English Derby winner High Chaparral - also the sire of Cox Plate winner So You Think and Victoria Derby winner Monaco Consul - out of a Pentire mare.

New kid on the block Rock Classic could prove to be Shoot Out's biggest hurdle after stamping his class with a fine victory in the Australian Guineas at Flemington.

He is prepared by master trainer Bart Cummings who has won the Rosehill Guineas twice before with Sky Chase in 1988 and Solar Circle two years later.

Saturday's feature will be Shoot Out's seventh start this campaign, which kicked off with an unplaced run at Eagle Farm in December.

But if rival trainers were hoping Shoot Out may have been coming to the end of his preparation, Wallace indicated they should think again.

"We were always doing that," Wallace said.

"He's improved. They'll know he's there on Saturday."

Shoot Out is being stabled at Randwick during his Sydney stay and worked over 1200m in even time on Tuesday morning, sprinting up his final 400m.

He will bowl over the same trip on Thursday morning at three-quarter pace as a final Guineas lead-up.

Shoot Out is still among the entries for both the AJC Australian Derby (2400m) at Randwick on April 10 and the Doncaster Mile (1600m) a week later with Wallace to decide after the Rosehill Guineas which path his star three-year-old takes.
