thedogs - Gosford 02 May 2023 Race 12

A modest Golden Oldies for those at the bottom rung on the scale, will wind down the Curtain tonight. SHAFTED (2) is the only runner here, who has experienced a win in 2023. That was a 22.51 here 4 back, in this very Grade. Clear benchmark. FLYING GIUSEPPE (4) has zip: but winless for 10 months. Sparingly-raced Vet. BEAR'S BEST (8) 1st Masters run.
