The start of the Anipal GeeGees Cup is only two sleeps away (lockout is at 11am AEST on Saturday) and fields for our first meeting have been released. You can find them (and all fields throughout the competition) at the Racing Australia website. Click here for Randwick's (Sydney) fields for Saturday, and here for the meeting at Flemington (Melbourne) on Sunday. Please note that the times listed are local time for New South Wales and Victoria. The main races this weekend are the Epsom Handicap, the Metropolitan, and Flight Stakes at Randwick, and the Turnbull Stakes at Flemington.
If you would like to watch the races to cheer your horses on you have several options. The broadcast arrangements for Australian racing are a hot mess and as a consequence, Sydney and Melbourne races are shown on different channels. On free-to-air, Saturday's Sydney races will be shown on 7 Two and Sunday's Flemington races is on the racing.com free-to-air service. Racing.com is also broadcast on Foxtel on channel 522. Foxtel will show the Sydney races on Sky Thoroughbred Central (channel 521). You can also watch online - the Randwick races are on the Racing NSW website and Flemington will be on the racing.com site.
Good luck with your stables!
