This year’s Railway Stakes will carry a record prize money of $1 million. There will be $4 million in stakes and bonuses, including a $250,000 bonus for any horse which is placed in all 3 races

The conditions of the Railway will be changed from a handicap with no top weight limit to a quality handicap with a maximum of 60kg, the same conditions as the Emirates Stakes.

The minimum for the Railway will remain at 52kg, but 3YOs will be able to carry 50kg, a clause that was removed from the conditions of the race several years ago.

Looks like we could have a feast of eastern states horses for the next Railway! David Hayes, Lee Freedman, Gai Waterhouse, Peter Moody, Danny O’Brien, Robert Smerdon & Gerald Ryan have all indicated they will set horses for the series.

but the winner will come from the west...

promising gelding, onpacer who does fight on, certainly showed improvement last campaign but will need to improve further to be any chance in the railway or similar, imo

Good to see the pontiff back from injury. Brushed away a few cobwebs today with a winner & a runner-up from 3 rides.

Will gradually reassert himself again (Pike’s been getting a lot of his rides). Expecting Pike to go east for a stint once this season closes.

You do a brilliant job of providing here Westman, on another thread you ducked out before seeing a request for info from me on where to get such access to stats that you posted on wet track winners and lists of breeding results on certain track condition winners and so on so I thought to myself "this is the place where westman will see the request"....so please share the websites that provide us poor punters that info.Whew, that is one heck of a sentence.
Thanks from all in need mate
