Autumn Glow has a day in the Autumn sun at Randwick on Saturday
Super mare Autumn Glow isn’t racing but she will be a star attraction on Day One of The Championships at Royal Randwick on Saturday.
Autumn Glow will be ridden by regular jockey James McDonald in a 1000m solo workout.
The exhibition gallop is a practice Waller often uses to fine-tune the preparations of his carnival contenders.
Waller is readying Autumn Glow for her final race of the season, the Group 1 $5 million Queen Elizabeth Stakes (2000m) at Royal Randwick on April 11.
Autumn Glow is the $1.40 favourite with TAB Fixed Odds to complete a perfect four-year-old season in Sydney's premier autumn weight-for-age race.
Autumn Glow, racing's "Miss Invincible", is unbeaten in 11 starts including seven races this season, highlighted by her Group 1 wins in the Epsom Handicap, Verry Elleegant Stakes and George Ryder Stakes.
She has also won the Golden Eagle which is a Group 1 in everything but name only.
Autumn Glow achieved a newTimeform
peak rating of 128 with her runaway Ryder win, which also equalled the highest rating returned on an Australian racecourse this season.
Ka Ying Rising is aiming for his 19th consecutive win in the Group 2 Sprint Cup (1200m) at Sha Tin on Monday.
The David Hayes-trained Ka Ying Rising set a new Hong Kong record for successive wins in the Group 1 Queen's Silver Jubilee Cup (1400m) last start.
Ka Ying Rising smashed the Sha Tin 1400m course record when he stopped the clock at a staggering 1m 19.36s.
The world's number-ranked racehorse also equalled his career-best Timeform rating of 134 which he first returned in the Hong Kong International Sprint (1200m) last December.
