Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 2 hours ago Journalists Posted 2 hours ago Gringotts (NZ) (Per Incanto) is likely to be Ciaron Maher’s sole representative in the Gr.3 The Gong (1600m) as Saturday racing next weekend again heads outside of the Sydney area to Kembla Grange. Maher has created plenty of history of his own through his training career but there would not be many ‘double-doubles’ among them. That is what Gringotts could achieve should he salute in the 1600m A$1 million Group Three event. Victory in the Listed The Big Dance (1600m) last year followed by The Gong have the signs there again after the six-year-old was able to snag The Big Dance for a second time on Melbourne Cup Day a fortnight ago. “He’s come out of The Big Dance super,” Maher said. “He’s probably in career best form.” Maher added that Gringott’s main aim over the spring was the Gr.1 King Charles III Stakes (1600m) but the setbacks with blood readings turned attention back to The Big Dance. Gringotts is rated the $2.50 favourite for The Gong while other stablemates nominated including Vivy Air (Hellbent) who heads to Perth and 2024 Caulfield Cup winner Duke De Sessa (Lope de Vega) will be sent for a break.
