GUNNADOO Cove has upset some of her more fancied rivals to score a sensational victory in Saturday night’s Group 3 Gold Cup (720m) at Wentworth Park.
Stepping from box one as a $10 shot, Gunnadoo Cove slipped into third position behind Dean Swain’s duo Miss Foxy Lee (box two) and Starza Light (box five) in the early stages.
Past the post on the first occasion, the two leaders had sprinted clear, with Gunnadoo Cove stalking them back in third.
Down the back, the John Heard-trained bitch started gaining ground, hooking to the outside in the run around the home turn.
