Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 19, 2023 Journalists Share Posted December 19, 2023 What Gosford Races Where The Entertainment Grounds – 4 Racecourse Rd, West Gosford NSW 2250 When Thursday, December 21, 2023 First Race 1:15pm AEDT Visit Dabble NSW racing heads to Gosford on Thursday afternoon, with a competitive seven-race program set for decision. The rail moves out +3m for the meeting, and with scattered showers predicted in the lead-up, the track should fall somewhere in the Soft range. The opening event is set to get underway at 1:15pm local time. Best Bet: Costa Smeralda Costa Smeralda has not been seen since her sensational debut victory on September 28 at Wyong, where she travelled outside the leader and bolted clear when asked for the ultimate effort. The Ciaron Maher & David Eustace barn has not put any official work into their filly since, and although she has been off the scene for 83 days, we are convinced she is ready to produce first-up. Best Bet Race 6 – #10 Costa Smeralda (13) 3yo Filly | T: Ciaron Maher & David Eustace | J: Tyler Schiller (55kg) Bet with Neds Next Best: Restonica Restonica was luckless on resumption at Newcastle on December 2 and should have finished much closer than the 2.8-length margin may suggest. He jumped well from barrier seven but was unable to hold a position throughout the 1200m contest, being forced to chase from near last when turning for home. He never shirked the task, however, and his strong closing sectionals suggest Restonica should improve second-up. Next Best Race 2 – #4 Restonica (8) 3yo Colt | T: James Cummings | J: Tyler Schiller (57.5kg) Bet with Bet365 Next Best Again: The Extreme Cat The Extreme Cat made a successful debut for the Nathan Doyle stable at Coffs Harbour on November 30. It was a brave performance considering the position in transit, as the son of Extreme Choice sustained a three-wide run to score by 2.5 lengths. He makes a step up in trip and grade in this 1200m Class 1 contest, but based on what we saw first-up, The Extreme Cat should prove hard to beat. Next Best Again Race 5 – #1 The Extreme Cat (2) 4yo Gelding | T: Nathan Doyle | J: Ashley Morgan (59kg) Bet with PlayUp Gosford Thursday quaddie tips – 21/12/2023 Gosford quadrella selections Thursday, December 21, 2023 2-5-6-10 1-6-8 1-3-10-11 1-2-5-6-8 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip More horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
