Australia\n<\/p>\n
The Everest Carnival opened Saturday at Randwick with Fangirl edging Lindermann by a whisker in the Group 1 7 stakes. Both are trained by Chris Waller.<\/p>\n
Fangirl repeated her victory in the same race a year ago while bouncing back from a first-up fourth in the Group 1 Memsie Stakes at Caulfield.<\/p>\n
“I actually thought Lindermann had won but when it’s the stablemate fighting out the photo finish you’re not too concerned. Great result,” Waller said.<\/p>\n
Joliestar rallied widest of all from the back of the field to win the Group 1 The Shorts at 1,100 meters, with the favorite, Private Harry, checking in a well-beaten fourth.<\/p>\n
Winning jockey James McDonald<\/a> said the outcome serves notice to Hong Kong’s sprint star Ka Ying Rising, who with jockey Zac Purton, is highly touted for the AUS$20 million (about $13.2 million) Group 1 The Everest on Oct. 18.\n<\/p>\nAt Caulfield, Sepals won the Group 1 Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes Handicap, with the favorite, Angel Capital, fourth. Sir Delius saved the day for the chalk players with a narrow win over Buckaroo in the Group 1 Underwood.<\/p>\n
Japan\n<\/p>\n

The 2,200 meters on good to firm turf went in 2:20.2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"1 of 3 | Baeza gets a long-awaited Grade I win in Saturday’s $1 million Pennsylvania Derby.
