Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 27, 2023 Journalists Share Posted December 27, 2023 What Gosford Races Where The Entertainment Grounds – 4 Racecourse Rd, West Gosford NSW 2250 When Thursday, December 28, 2023 First Race 1:10pm AEDT Visit Dabble The Group 3 Belle Of The Turf Stakes (1600m) headlines an ultra-competitive seven-race program at Gosford on Thursday afternoon. The rail is in the true position throughout the entire circuit for the meeting, and with only minor showers predicted in the lead-up, expect the surface to upgraded into the Good range prior to the opening event scheduled for 1:10pm local time. Belle Of The Turf Stakes Tip: Zoe’s Promise The Group 3 Belle Of The Turf Stakes (1600m) is for the fillies & mares, where Zoe’s Promise will be seeking back-to-back wins for the campaign. Since joining the Kris Lees barn in September, the daughter of Swear has been showing steading improvement, culminating in a terrific last-start victory in BM78 company at Randwick on December 9. She led all of the way despite being forced to lug 60kg on her back, and with tactical versatility a major asset in this event, watch for Zoe’s Promise to produce something similar in the Group 3 feature. Belle Of The Turf Stakes Race 6 – #4 Zoe’s Promise (6) 4yo Mare | T: Kris Lees | J: Dylan Gibbons (57kg) +320 with Neds Gosford Guineas Tip: Royal Tribute The three-year-olds step out in the Listed Gosford Guineas (1200m), where Royal Tribute must be considered the one to beat. The Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained colt was no match for King’s Gambit in the Group 2 Roman Consul (1200m) on October 7, however, was only narrowly defeated by Ozzmosis, who would then go on to secure victory in the Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes (1200m). That appears to be the strongest form for this, and after an 82-day freshen to go along with a strong tick-over trial, Royal Tribute will take a power of beating. Gosford Guineas Race 5 – #3 Royal Tribute (3) 3yo Colt | T: Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott | J: Adam Hyeronimus (56kg) +170 with PlayUp Best Bet at Gosford: Concello Concello couldn’t have been more impressive when breaking her maiden status at Hawkesbury on December 10, rounding up her rivals to score by 3.3 lengths. The daughter of Trapeze Artist appreciated getting out to the 1600m after failing to fire a shot on debut at Canterbury and finds a very similar setup on Tuesday. Tyler Schiller should get a lovely sit in transit, and when asked for the ultimate effort, watch for Concello to be charging down the centre of the course in the opener. Best Bet Race 1 – #6 Concello (6) 3yo Filly | T: Chris Waller | J: Tyler Schiller (56kg) +160 with Picklebet Best Value at Gosford: Study Study failed to make an impression in her only run of the preparation at Newcastle on August 29, but caught the eye at the barrier trials as she resumes from a 121-day spell. She’s been allowed to stride out under her own steam in both, with her latest jump-out at Hawkesbury having Tyler Schiller get a feel for the filly before taking the reins for race-day conditions. She’s likely to get back from barrier nine, but with a strong tempo expected in this 1100m contest, Study appears ready to sprint well first-up. Best Value Race 3 – #20 Study (9) 3yo Filly | T: James Cummings | J: Tyler Schiller (56.5kg) +1000 with Bet365 Gosford Thursday quaddie tips – 28/12/2023 Gosford quadrella selections Thursday, December 28, 2023 1-9-14 3-4-6-9 1-4-6 2-3-4-6-11-14 | 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...
