Berry rode Gold Symphony for the first time at Randwick on Saturday morning and was suitably impressed with his track gallop.
"He's a beautiful horse. He has a lot of presence about him and he does his work very easily," Berry said.
Gold Symphony goes into the Golden Rose after wins in the Vain Stakes and McNeil Stakes in Melbourne and Berry said the colt would be advantaged over Saturday's distance.
"It looks like he is a horse who is going to get better once he gets to 1400m and even a mile and he's going to get that on Saturday," he said.
Despite his promising Melbourne form, Gold Symphony is one of the outsiders of the nine horses who have accepted for Golden Rose.
Godolphin will have one-third of the field, with Shards ($12) and Holler ($13) considered more than capable support acts to the stable's pre-post favourite Exosphere ($2.90).
Of the trio, Exosphere has drawn closest to the rail in gate two, with Holler in five and Joao Moreira's mount Shards to start from six.
