Aberama Gold

“Aberama Gold seems to enjoy those conditions and we're lucky to have got him really. He ended up in Goodwood on this sort of ground, he won at York before that on better ground, but these are his sort of conditions by the looks of it. I don't know if we'll run him again this year. I'm not sure he's up to Listed class. He's a very good sprint handicapper and he's had a great year. I can't imagine he's going into next year well handicapped, but on these conditions, if you handle them it's probably worth a stone. We'll probably look for valuable sprint handicaps on bottomless ground - David O'Meara, trainer.”

“Owner Evan Sutherland said Aberama Gold would handle the ground better than most and he was right. It was very straightforward, he travelled well, the last half a furlong felt like a long way but the loose horse might have been a help. I have inherited a very good horse off Keith Dalgleish. It is his third start for me now, I can't take a great deal of credit for him. The Ayr Gold Cup will be a good target and between now and then I am not certain as there is a bit of time. He is not just a mudlark but he probably wouldn't want it rattling fast - David O'Meara, trainer.”

“That was very nice. We've not really done anything with Aberama Gold since he arrived. He ran at Ayr very quickly after coming from Keith's and even now I hardly know the horse yet. He's in the Stewards' Cup next Saturday and if he gets in, why not run? - David O'Meara, trainer.”

“Aberama Gold keeps improving and who knows when we will get to the bottom of him. He doesn't do a whole lot when he gets there but he's a nice horse. I always thought a bit of him and he probably just went a bit weak between two and three. He's versatile with ground and track - Shane Gray, jockey. ”

“We had been disappointed with Aberama Gold but giving him time and a strong pace at six furlongs has paid off - Keith Dalgleish, trainer.”
