GOLD COAST NOMS SET UP A BIG DAY AS THE NEW TURF TRACK COMES INTO PLAY FOR THE FIRST TIME

By Graham Potter | Monday, December 4, 2023

If nominations are anything to go by, the meeting at the Gold Coast on Saturday ... the first on the new turf track, ... will have full fields after two-hundred-an-one nominations were received for the scheduled seven-race meeting.

Fields will be restricted to twelve runners on the day.

Report-backs by jockeys who have already ridden on the track have all been unanimously, extremely positive ... and indeed complimentary ... to track manager Nevesh Ramdhani and his team who have managed this very sizable project over the past ten months with a minimum of fuss.

Safe to say, the meeting will be watched with keen interest given that, not only will it effectively usher in a new era for the Gold Coast Turf Club, but the venue will also soon become the focus of national attention when its hosts the multi-million dollar Magic Millions race-day on January 13 ... headlined by the Magic Millions Two-Year-old Classic and the Magic Millions Three-Year-Old Guineas, both offering $3 million in prize-money.
