No Pike at Ascot this Saturday, with the leading rider heading east for Group 1 William Reid Stakes Day at Caulfield. Pike takes five rides on the card, including BYD-Quokka contender Rey Magnerio, and it’s a race he knows well after piloting Masked Crusader to victory in 2021.

Scahill Stakes, now known as the Gold Rush. Caballus is currently the @TAB_touch favourite for WA’s richest race.

Holly Nottle has made history, becoming the fastest jockey on record to reach 100 winners in Western Australia since computerisation began in the late 1970s. 👏 It took Holly just 291 days from her first race ride to reach the milestone, all within her first 12 months as a licensed jockey, an extraordinary achievement by any measure. Until today, Lucy Fiore held the benchmark, with Chris Parnham next up, but Holly has now set a new standard. For context, some of WA’s greats took far longer to reach the same mark, Paul Harvey needed 849 days, and William Pike 806 days. Congratulations, Holly. You are absolutely flying.

"Saturday’s meeting at Ascot produced an enthralling afternoon of racing, with several key lead-up races for the state’s autumn features.
