Six year-old Zoustar gelding Zou Sensation has been in hot form this year and was rewarded for consistency when scoring his first Black Type win at Caulfield on Saturday in the Listed MRC Weekend Hussler Stakes (1400m).

The $300,000 Group II ATC Roman Consul Stakes (1200m) at Rosehill on Saturday looked like it would be an easy assignment for Golden Slipper winning filly Marhoona, but the race favourite came up short when fading for third to progressive colts Hidden Motive and Beadman.
