TAB Everest day will now feature 10 races with Racing NSW including an additional race to further complement Sydney’s biggest day of racing.

With the inception of The Kosciuszko this year there has been an added focus on country racing so it’s fitting the tenth race, a $100,000 Highway Handicap, celebrates country racing.

The new Highway will be a Class 3 run over 1400m.

“By adding this race to TAB Everest day it is an opportunity for more country owners and trainers to experience Australia’s richest race day at Royal Randwick’’ said Racing NSW CEO Peter V’landys AM.

“As a new race The Kosciuszko has generated tremendous interest in its first year and we want to thank country participants for their support.’’
