Gold Coast Race 1

Aquis Gold Nugget

Prize Money: $150,000

Tricky race to kick off the card with all but one of these babies facing the starter for the first time. ITCHINTOGO (1) is the only galloper in the field with race experience but has looked handy in both outings to date. Saluted over this distance range last time out and winning hoop Maloney sticks in the irons. Rates the testing material. The well-related BACIAMI (2) (half to 2xG3 winner Panova) put in a better trial last time and is sure to be well-educated out of the Edmonds barn. Respect any market confidence. DRAGON MAGIC (3) placed in a recent Eagle Farm trial and Rodd stays on top for race day. A strong debut showing would not surprise. WOOTTON YOU KNOW (5) gets gun hoop Williams on board and can feature first time at the races. WRITTEN ACLAIM (6) next in line.

Comments

Raced twice to date. When well in the market at debut, set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 7 at Doomben 2yo Hcp on November 15 over 1200m, on a slow track; 1.5 len behind Zip Lock carrying 59kg at $2.70. Second-up tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a long-neck at Doomben LR Phelan Ready December 6 over 1110m defeating Magritte carrying 57kg at $2.80. Can build on that bright start to his career.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Two-year-old gelding making debut by Castelvecchio out of Love Me Quietly. Half-brother to dual-Group 3 winner Panova. Dam was a winner of three races. Was second in a 1000m barrier trial on January 5 at Gold Coast. Should measure up.

First-starter by Dracarys out of De Belle Of Cannes. Full-brother to six-start maiden Moshimoshi. Dam was a ten-start maiden. Worth watching for any market moves.

First starter by Better Than Ready out of Noesis. Half-brother to eight-time winner Mavericks. Dam was a winner of one race. Finished third in a Gold Coast trial December 30. Inside barrier will assist chances. Favouring others until he proves himself.

On debut. Two-year-old colt by Aclaim out of Writer's Block. Half-brother to Listed winner Foreign Press. Dam was a winner of one race. At the most recent trial finished fourth on January 5 at Gold Coast over 1000m. Makes debut at home and should be kept safe.
