Lanciato has been a constant in Mark Newnham's short training career and the five-year-old will be given his chance in Listed company in the Carrington Stakes.

The gelding was Newnham's first runner when he took out his licence 18 months ago after many years at Tulloch Lodge as Gai Waterhouse's senior foreman.

Newnham has now added a stable at Randwick while retaining his original boxes at Warwick Farm where Lanciato is trained.

The former New Zealander was Newnham's first runner in June 2016, and although he ran second he helped put the trainer on the map.

Since his first Sydney campaign, Lanciato has won four races and has earned his chance in Saturday's Carrington Stakes (1400m) at Rosehill with Rachel King to ride at 53kg.

The pair combined to win over 1400 metres at Randwick on January 6.

"He's going terrific and he gets in well with 53 kilos," Newnham said.

"Rachel rode him well last time and she can ride the weight. There are not many who can.

"I think he will go well. I would be disappointed if he didn't finish in the first three.

"If he does we will look at the Newcastle Newmarket. It's a way off yet but he likes his runs spaced.
"That is the sort of race that will suit him."
