Golden Gift 2023 Preview
Track: Good Weather: Fine
The favourite Shangri La Express will take beating against these despite the wide draw. It can press forward and prove hard to catch. Scampi was well backed on debut and deserves another chance. Gram has trialled nicely while Miss Judas was good on debut in what should be a solid form race going forward.
Golden Gift 2023 Runner by Runner
1. Shangri Las Express (14)
Has good gate speed and should be able to roll forward and prove hard to beat. Well tried in early markets and goes on top.
2. Rue De Royale (2)
Pass mark on debut. Harder here but is trending the right way and maps to do no work.
3. Lamentum (16)
Can’t have.
4. Scampi (13)
Well backed on debut but didn’t do much. Should prove hard to beat and will be a big improver in this despite the awkward gate.
5.Volatile (5)
No luck on debut. Looks well placed here and has good claims with a cleaner run this time around.

Respect any market moves.

Trials were rock solid. Sticky draw but goes in the mix.

Looks tested.
9. Thunderous (3)
Can’t have.
10. Was Council (15)

Excellent debut. Maps for a sound run in this and can go close with even luck.
12. Art’s Alive (1)
Prefer others.
13. Better Being Single (10)
Tricky draw to overcome but showed plenty on debut, should be strips fitter and can give this race a shake.

Keep an eye on any market moves.
16e. Vinniro (4)
