What will it take for Eduardo to beat Nature Strip in Saturday’s $15m TAB Everest (1200m) at Royal Randwick? It’s a question trainer Joe Pride has spent plenty of time pondering and he’s come to the conclusion that Eduardo has beaten the champ before, so he knows it can be done, but to do it over 1200m in an Everest it’ll need a “tactically perfect” ride from Nash Rawiller. “Statistically it ...
The $15 million Everest has taken over as one of the biggest race days on the Australian calendar, but one crucial factor behind the history of this race is that Victorian breeding is prominent each and every year. The inaugural running in 2017 saw Redzel mark his position as one of the greatest sprinters in the land, subsequent to winning his last four races including the Group 1 Doomben ...
Everest hopeful Joyful Fortune has been thrown in the deep end but trainer Mark Newnham says how he performs against the world’s best sprinter could set up his future in Australia. The former Hong Kong galloper’s inclusion in Saturday’s $15m TAB Everest (1200m) at Royal Randwick surprised even Newnham but from spending plenty of time on the gelding’s back he knows he’s dealing with a quality ...

James Cummings and Godolphin will delay making their decision on which horse will run in The Everest after potential combatants Paulele and Ingratiating filled the quinella on Saturday.

"I'm planning to give Nature Strip a jumpout on his ...
The Group 3 Northwood Plume Stakes is a contest often lost among the array of highlights on the Caulfield Guineas card, but for the Godolphin stable, the mares-only race might hold the answer to a burning question. Going in as favourite in the 1200-metre sprint is Godolphin's four-year-old Brazen Beau mare Zapateo, who could suddenly emerge as a frontrunner for the stable's slot in the $15 ...
