The Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott-trained Farnan is headed to The TAB Everest at Royal Randwick on October 17 with Aquis selecting the three-year-old colt for their slot in the world’s richest race on turf.
Farnan – currently $15 at TAB for The Everest – has raced seven times for five wins with his biggest victory taking place last March in the 1200-metre Group 1 Golden Slipper at Rosehill Gardens.
In his first run since winning the Golden Slipper, Farnan finished fifth in last Saturday’s 1200-metre Group 2 Run To The Rose at Rosehill won by Rothfire.
Due to Farnan bypassing the Golden Rose, Rothfire has tightened as favourite from $2.40 to $2.20.
TAB’s representative for The TAB Everest, Nature Strip, is currently the $3.50 favourite.
