Leading Australian jockey Luke Nolen and Kiwi-bred sprinting star I Wish I Win will return to Randwick for the A$20 million The Everest (1200m) next week.
Waikato Stud homebred I Wish I Win had already earned himself a place in New Zealand thoroughbred folklore with his A$10 million Golden Eagle heroics in the spring, but a stunning Group One win at Randwick did even more.
High-class four-year-old I Wish I Win showed that his versatility extends to sprinting when producing the day’s eye-catcher at Flemington when dashing home for second in the Gr.1 Lightning Stakes (1000m) won by Coolangatta.
