2023 The Golden Eagle Results

  • 1st: #12 Obamburumai
  • 2nd: #3 Pericles
  • 3rd: #4 Golden Mile




The Golden Eagle is one of the recent additions to the Sydney Spring Racing Calendar, the Special Conditions feature held on the Saturday prior to Victoria’s Melbourne Cup at Rosehill Gardens in either late October or early November each year.

Contested for the first time in 2019, The Golden Eagle race is open only to four-year-old horses and is the most lucrative of its kind offering $10 million in prize money as of 2022.

The Golden Eagle takes place in Sydney on the same day Melbourne hosts the time-honoured Victoria Derby.

The race is a set weights event that is now a hugely popular target for the middle-distance four-year-olds from around the country.

The 1500m showdown is part of the “Golden Slam” series of races that begins with the two-year-olds in the Golden Slipper and also includes the Golden Rose for three-year-olds.

Horses may come via a range of different top-level lead-up races into The Golden Eagle including the Group 1 Epsom Handicap (1600m) run at Randwick in early October. Inaugural The Golden Eagle winner Kolding became the first horse in history to complete the Epsom – Golden Eagle double in 2019.

The following year the 2020 The Golden Eagle winner Colette also came via the same lead-up improving on her sixth in the Epsom Handicap.

For the third edition in 2021 I’m Thunderstruck won the Golden Eagle on the back of a lead-up Group 1 Toorak Handicap (1600m) win in Melbourne.

In 2022 Peter Moody’s Golden Eagle winner I Wish I Win was also a graduate out of the Toorak Handicap having run fifth in his lead-up to the $10 million race.

Looking to rival the Melbourne racing action down south on the same day, The Golden Eagle Day also features the $3 million Winners Stakes (1300m) – known in 2019 as the Redzel Stakes, 2020 as the Yes Yes Yes Stakes, 2021 as the Classique Legend Stakes, 2022 as the Nature Strip Stakes, and 2023 as the Giga Kick Stakes in honour of the respective The Everest winning horses – and the $750,000 Rosehill Gold Cup (2000m).

The traditional lead-up into The Golden Eagle field is Randwick’s $1 million Silver Eagle (1300m).

The form out of the 2021 Golden Eagle was franked with the winner, I’m Thunderstruck, going on to place second in both the $5 million The All-Star Mile in Melbourne and Sydney’s Group 1 Doncaster Mile the following autumn.

In 2022 the Golden Eagle field size was increased at the last minute to include two extra runners with a capacity line-up 20 starters.

The 2022 Golden Eagle winner I Wish I Win franked the form the following autumn running well in a host of Group 1 events including winning the 2023 TJ Smith Stakes.

In 2023 The Golden Eagle saw its first international winner with classy young Japanese raider Obamburumai denying the locals.

The 2023 The Golden Eagle took place at Rosehill Gardens on Saturday November 4th, 2023 offering $10 million in stakes and was won in a thrilling upset late by the Japanese-trained Obamburumai ($7).

CLICK HEE FOR OUR COMPLETE 2023 GOLDEN EAGLE TIPS & BEST BETS

To Win: #18 Legarto ($8 at time of publish) – BET NOW

Going for a touch of value in the Golden Eagle this year and have the visiting New Zealand-trained Group 1 winning mare Legarto on top at a nice price. She was last seen carrying 58.5kg to a Black-Type win over the mile at home and is one of the proven horses at the distance here. She is back down under and will relish a drop in weight to 55.5kg. Michael Dee comes aboard from a favourable barrier six draw. She was in Australia for the autumn and beat home the boys as a three-year-old at Flemington in the Group 1 Australian Guineas (1600m) so has class. It is a big field, there are plenty of form lines to consider, and this is her first Sydney start but think the price is too good to go past.

The Danger: #16 Amelia’s Jewel ($3.80) – BET NOW

Amelia’s Jewel is back into favouritism after easing out earlier in the week after coming up trumps with barrier five. She was drawn wide in the Toorak when ninth and is after atonement here. Before that Simon Miller’s WA star won back-to-back Group 2s in Melbourne to get her first interstate campaign underway in style. She beat a class field of older horses home in the Group 1 Northerly Stakes (1800m) at home last summer so has the ability to run a strong 1500m here. Right gate, Damian Lane knows her well, rock hard fit now and she can bounce back.

Best Roughie: #8 Strait Acer ($46 at time of publish) – BET NOW

There are a host of double-figure runners in this year’s Golden Eagle that could add value to the upset but one of the real outside chances that looks overs is the ultra-consistent Strait Acer with good lead-up form around some shorter-priced rivals. This Edward Cummings-trained son of Headwater won three on the trot in easier company before a close second at a similar price behind Vienna Princess in the $1 million Silver Eagle (1300m). Pericles was third in that race and think the form out of it can hold in the grand final. Has won at this distance, presents fit, drawn for a run in gate seven and can surprise.

2023 Golden Eagle Ballot Exemptions

The horses that run first, second and third in the Epsom Handicap and Silver Eagle are exempt from ballot, as are the winner/s of the previous running of the Golden Rose, Randwick Guineas and Arrowfield Sprint.

2023 Golden Eagle Field

The confirmed The Golden Eagle 2023 field of four-year-olds will be detailed below as soon as available.

The Golden Eagle field size was increased to 20 starters in 2022.

The 2023 Golden Eagle final field is out on Tuesday the 31st of October, 2023.

The Golden Eagle 2023 field of 20 final acceptances is now out with the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained The Everest graduate Hawaii Five Oh and Group 1 winning WA-trained mare Amelia’s Jewel leading the markets.

The official 2023 Golden Eagle barrier draw took place on Tuesday evening with Amelia’s Jewel drawing ideally with gate five.

The Golden Eagle History

The Golden Eagle was first run in 2019 and won by the classy Chris Waller-trained Kolding who came off a lead-up Epsom Handicap win. Kolding would go on to win the following year’s George Main Stakes (2020) as well as the All Aged Stakes in 2021.

In its second running, the Godolphin-raced mare Colette won The Golden Eagle in 2020 when the race took place on a Heavy (9) track.

The favourites finally saluted in the third running with I’m Thunderstruck ($3.50 in 2021) too good for his rivals late.

The 2022 The Golden Eagle prize money was boosted to $10 million and the field size boosted at the eleventh hour to accommodate 20 starters.

In 2023 the Japanese were on top with Obamburumai saluting.
