The Event

The Everest is a 1200m sprint and is the centrepiece of a new-look spring racing program introduced by Racing NSW and the Australian Turf Club. The spring carnival boasts a staggering $25.5 million prizemoney over a five-week period. The Everest will take centre stage on the final day, with total stakes for the meeting exceeding $15 million — making it Australia’s richest race day.
