Feature racing in NSW heads to Gosford this Saturday with 10 quality races on the card.
Our full 2023 Gosford Gold Cup Day Preview can be found below.
The Maher and Eustace trained colt Tumbling couldn’t have been much more impressive when scoring by two lengths on debut at Ballarat.
The son of Trapeze Artist then stepped out in the Group 3 Kindergarten Stakes on a heavy track at Randwick where he finished 5.5 lengths behind the winner Libertad.
A month in between runs should have him fresh and he is a backable price.

Forget Remlaps Commander went around last start in a similar Highway race at Royal Randwick as he simply didn’t handle the heavy 8.
The colt was showing a fair amount of talent prior to that hiccup and we are getting a better price now than last start.
Drawn perfectly in barrier three and looks the obvious one to my eye.

Broken Arrows is a veteran of 44 career race starts for just the five wins.
The now seven year old was competitive in this grade of racing during his last campaign and has had two trials leading into this first up assignment.
Two of his five wins have come when fresh and he looks well placed here.

Miss Madison has been good in two races so far this prep and she will be ready to peak now at her third run in
The daughter of Astern had two trials before finishing within 1.5 lengths of the winner first.
Another trial in between runs had her fitter and she ran third at Rosehill on heavy track last time out.

Biscayne Bay is a fairly talented and lightly raced four year old mare who raced in black type company as a three-year-old filly.
All three of her runs so far this prep have been full of merit and she has been doing her best work late in the piece.
She gets out to a more suitable distance in this event and has drawn well on the inside.

Vowmaster was last seen finishing third in the $1 million Magic Millions Sprint on the Gold Coast in January.
The five year old is only lightly raced, placing in five of his nine career starts and his first up record is impressive.
Both trials leading into this fresh assignment have been solid and Kerrin McEvoy jumps aboard.

Bacchanalia started this campaign with back to back wins, the latter of which was at Group 3 level.
The four year old narrowly beat Clemenceau in that event and is a much bigger price despite just a slight increase in weights and he beat Coal Crusher who has since come out and won.
He has six wins from 18 career starts and has drawn perfectly in barrier four.

Welwal is yet to win from four starts so far this prep but the four year old has shown plenty in each outing.
He finishes second in the Doncaster Prelude before running into the smart Tamerlane last time out when bridesmaid.
He will be nearing peak fitness now at this stage in his prep and has drawn to get a lovely run in transit from barrier three in The Coast field.
2 Units Welwal
Navajo Peak is a very progressive type of horse who is putting together a really nice resume.
The four year old gelding has been placed in 10 of his 14 career race starts and was only narrowly denied at Rosehill last Saturday on a heavy 9.
The Gosford Gold Cup is his first go beyond 2000m but he won over that distance at Doomben in impressive fashion just two starts back.

Flag Of Honour has been competitive in black type races during his short racing career and he looks well placed in a race of this quality.
Both trials leading into this first up assignment have been solid and he will be required to carry just 55.5kg in the last.
Looks a good bet.
