Sydney racing kicks off at 12:25pm (AEDT) and the nine-race card continues through until 5:30pm (AEDT).

There are six Group status Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival events on the program headlined of course by the highly anticipated return of glamour mare Winx in the 2018 Chipping Norton Stakes.

Winx races today in Randwick Race 6 at 3:30pm (AEDT) and there will be nothing stopping Chris Waller’s $1.08 favourite from securing her record 16th Group 1 turf triumph and her third straight Chipping Norton Stakes trophy.

Other highlights include the Golden Slipper hopes running races three and four – the Skyline Stakes and Sweet Embrace Stakes – along with a smart field of mares contesting the country’s latest Group 1 event – the 2018 Surround Stakes (Race 7).
