Gold Trip (FR) Big run before Melbourne Cup Defense!!

What a strange race record

3 wins from 22 starts
2 Grade ones and 1 grade 2
and nearly 75 million rand in stakes.

Handled the big weight today and smashed them.

Melbourne Cup double could be on the cards

1st – GOLD TRIP (Mark Zahra) Unbelievable. I'm tingling. I can't believe he won like that. What a win. He's such a race day horse. He goes down the straight and he looks at the crowd. He's an absolute ripper. I had him switched off and I've always said that he's a horse that I don't like to cuddle him. When I go I like to give it to him. He is a stallion and he does think about it but when I give it to him it is like, I hit the front at the 200 (metre mark) and he's going to absolutely bolt in.
