Nash Rawiller has collected his first Hawkesbury Gold Cup aboard the baldy-faced Just Folk.

Trainer James Cummings believes he’s found the ideal race for talented mare Parisal to kick off her campaign in style at Hawkesbury on Saturday.

Trainer James Cummings says the question over whether Parisal can run out a strong 1400m is a valid one heading into the $2 million The Invitation at Randwick on Saturday.

Sydney’s world-class $87 million Everest Carnival continues at Royal Randwick this Saturday with the running of the Group 1 $2 million Moët & Chandon Spring Champion Stakes and third running of the $2 million The Invitation.

Smart mare Benedetta is on a mission to raid Sydney’s spring carnival coffers.
