Redzel wins world’s richest turf race The Everest
SYDNEY, Oct 13, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Redzel won the world’s richest turf race
on a soft track in Sydney for the second straight time Saturday, holding off
a host of top-rated sprinters to clinch The Everest crown.
With Kerrin McEvoy in the saddle, he took the lead out of the gate at Royal
Randwick and never looked threatened to collect Aus$6.0 million (US$4.2
million) in winnings.
Between intermittent showers and before a crowd of 40,000, the Tye Angland-
ridden Trapeze Artist was second with Osborne Bulls third.
