Five Things to Expect on TAB Everest Day
TAB Everest Day is the pinnacle raceday of the Sydney Everest Carnival with over $31 million in prizemoney on offer.
A huge crowd will descend on Royal Randwick this Saturday for one of the most exciting days of racing and entertainment.
Here are five things to expect:

The best sprinters on the planet race for $20 million in prizemoney in the Group 1 TAB Everest (1200m). A field of 12 will line-up for the much-anticipated race which was first run in 2017. Last year’s runner-up, I Wish I Win, is rated the one to beat, while 2022 champ, Giga Kick, will also take his place in the field.
The $5m Group 1 King Charles III (1600m) features a host of stars including last year’s winner Fangirl from the Chris Waller stable. There is also the $2m Kosciuszko, the world’s richest race for country-trained horses and what promises to be one of the great days of racing.
