Arabian Gold (Doomben R6 No.1) might have had race fitness on her side but her barrier trial at Randwick last week was stunning. She must have been 20 lengths off the speed on the home turn, and taken very wide, but she was beaten less than a length and Blake Shinn didn't move an inch on her. It was an ideal clean out for the Doomben Roses and showed she's a filly at the top of her game.
