Golden Eagle Betting Odds

Ombamburamai was the first international to win The Golden Eagle in 2023 and Japan are searching for back-to-back victories in this four-year-old feature, with Ascoli Piceno a $3.50 favourite to win again.

Japan's leading two-year-old filly in 2023 was unbeaten in three starts as a juvenile, which includes a Group 1 triumph in the Hanshin Juvenile Fillies when completing a hat-trick last December.

After opening her 2024 account runner-up finishes in the Japan Guineas and NHK Mile Cup, Ascoli Piceno brought up her second Group 1 win last start when successful in the Keisei Hai Autumn Handicap on September 8.

Joliestar was good without luck in The Everest and with her sole Group 1 triumph having come over 1600m in last year's Thousand Guineas, the rise in distance shouldn't faze the Chris Waller-trained galloper here.

She shares a $6 quote with Lazzat, an unbeaten French raider who made it six-from-six when breaking through at Group 1 level on August 4 and that MRC de Cheese victory was a comfortable one, with the gelding winning by three lengths.

Lake Forrest and Tom Kitten (both $10) are on the third line of betting, while $11 is available for both Southport Tycoon and Stefi Magnetica in the Golden Eagle betting odds.
