About

Golden Temple, a 5yo gelding trained by N Meade in Meath, is by Galileo Gold out of Miss Sally. The horse has recorded three wins so far, the most important coming on 29 June 2024 at the Curragh when it secured the $25,252 Jj Mahon & Sons Irish European Breeders Fund Stayers Handicap. It has proved a profitable runner for bettors; staying with the horse throughout its career would have generated a 27% return on investment.
