Seven broadcasts the Autumn Racing Carnival, including the $4 million All-Star Mile at Caulfield and the 68th running of the $5 million Golden Slipper at Rosehill Gardens this month.

Legendary Bruce McAvaney will lead the commentary team alongside Jason Richardson, Emma Freedman, Lizzie Jelfs and Kate Waterhouse.

The Autumn Racing Carnival kicks up a gear this Saturday with a huge day of thoroughbred racing from All Star Mile Day at Caulfield and Ladies Day at Rosehill, live and free from 12pm AEDT on Seven and 7plus.

At Caulfield, defending champion Mr Brightside and Ciaron Maher’s mighty mare Pride Of Jenni are set to renew their rivalry in the $4 million All Star Mile at Caulfield, while viewers will have the chance to see parts of the Caulfield redevelopment for the very first time on Seven’s live and free broadcast.

At Rosehill, the fillies and mares will battle it out in the Group 1 Coolmore Classic on Chandon Ladies Day, where Champion trainer Chris Waller is striving for back-to-back wins with top weight and current favourite Zougotcha after taking out the race last year with Espiona.

Over the next six Saturdays, fans will enjoy the very best racing from the Sydney and Melbourne’s Autumn Carnivals live and free on Seven and 7plus, with the highlights including:

Rosehill Golden Slipper Day, the world’s richest race for two-year-olds and one of five Group 1 races at Rosehill Gardens on 23 March

The $3 million Australian Cup, the finale to Flemington’s Racing Spectacular, at Flemington on 30 March

The Championships, featuring eight Group 1 races across two action-packed Saturdays at Randwick on 6 April and 13 April

Caulfield – The Sharp EIT All Star Mile Day
Rosehill Gardens – Chandon Ladies Day

  1. I hope Katie McDonald pops up on some of the bigger days. She is someone who when she first started she was bloody awful, but Bruce clearly saw something in her took her under his wing and she is now a great racing broadcaster.
    The 7 horse racing team have an embarrassment of riches of talent, Bruce, Richo, Lizzie and Emma Freedman is one of the best interviewers around. They have a great reserves bench in Emily Bossum, Grace Ramage and even Will Freedman is improving as well.
    They did try with the wife of a well known trainer, and try and try they did but that one didn’t work out!! (Even tho I enjoyed her! Esp walking and talking!)
