The 2022 Birdsville Cup was the most emotive victory of jockey Robert Faehr’s almost 24 years in the saddle and he believes he has got the galloper to win the iconic race in two straight years.

Emerald’s Pioneer Park racecourse is in pristine condition for the Club’s signature race - the Emerald Ford Emerald 100. with a field of 10 to start on Saturday.

Trainer Rodney Hay is hopeful Bangers And Mayo can help fulfill a lifetime dream to win the Birdsville Cup next year when the former Toowoomba galloper makes his stable debut at Yeppoon on Tuesday.
