Gold Spice is ready for the toughest test of her fledgling career.
The Waikato Stud-bred and raced daughter of Rock ‘n’ Pop booked her trip to Trentham for Saturday’s Gr.1 Al Basti Equiworld Dubai New Zealand Oaks (2400m) with a last-start second in the Gr.3 Sunline Vase (2100m).
“She’s still got a bit to learn and she’ll only be having her fifth start, but we’re pretty happy with her,” said Graham Richardson, who trains the filly with Gavin Parker.
Jake Bayliss will replace a suspended Michael Coleman aboard Gold Spice, who is currently at $12 in the Oaks market.
