Rosa Carolina remains on target for the Gr.1 Thousand Guineas at Caulfield on October 8 despite an unexpected defeat in Sydney on Wednesday.
An easy first-up winner at Gosford, Savabeel filly Rosa Carolina was sent out a $2.50 favourite at Canterbury, but was narrowly beaten into second place.
"She'll take a lot from that," said Bruce Perry, racing manager for owner Lib Petagna.
"She'll now go to either the Reginald Allen Stakes or a stakes race in Melbourne. The Thousand Guineas is still the main aim."
