There is a lot of excitement surrounding the 2012 Regal Roller Stakes, with lots of quality horses making the trip to Caulfield this weekend. This 1200 metre race features 21 nominations, with a few horses having a good chance to make history and join the past winners list. The Regal Roller Stakes is a fairly new addition to the circuit, starting out only in 2010 at Caulfield. The winner of the first race was Jeuneyman, with Bel Sprinter taking the prize in 2011.
