Six horses will be heading to the starting gate for the 15th running of the Commonwealth Turf, a race for three years olds on the turf at a mile and a sixteenth. It was first run in 2005, but has not been contested every year, and it was not until 2022 where we saw a significant purse increase for the race.

Not many people gave Rubis a chance to win the CC Canterbury, as the Mental Bloch Racing gelding was the longest shot on the board at 36/1. You could understand that, though, since he was being moved from the dirt and the turf, and bettors did not have any recent turf works to go by.
The Sidley Stud was not done after enjoying his win with Blue Blood in the CC Rapid Transit in the prior race, or his win with Whoop Whoop before that in the CC Glass Slipper. He would make it three in a row in the CC Tiara, as Hashtag Selfie hung on in the stretch to get this victory.
