The Everest 2026 Betting Odds
Ka Ying Rising was the winner of the 2025 Everest and the same horse could be victorious once again at Randwick Racecourse. The runner continues to land a string of wins, with David A. Hayes looking to make history with this charge. There have been a clutch of successes at Sha Tin this year and there’s no reason to doubt the calibre of the runner.

If there is a viable alternative, it may come in the form of Tempted and the Ciaron Maher-trained charge has also been in the winning groove recently. All of the recent wins have been as odds-on favourite at Randwick, so the horse will be familiar with the course although it’s a tall order to see him or anyone else defeating the champion.

There’s been no stopping Ka Ying Rising who has been a winning machine at Sha Tin in 2026. After winning last year’s Everest, the David A. Hayes-trained charge has continue to go in an upward trajectory. In September, Zac Purton steered the horse to success in the HKSAR Chief Executive’s Cup, with that being an eight-length success over six furlongs.
That was a timely return after a clutch of spring successes at the Hong Kong track. There was a Group 1 victory when claiming the Chairman’s Sprint Prize, with the horse always doing enough when winning by four lengths. That was preceded by a Group 2 Sprint Cup win by another solid distance, having obliged in January and February at the same course.
Tempted is the horse that could potentially serve it up to the favourite, with wins at Randwick coming this autumn. In the Group Two Concorde Stakes, the odds-on favourite made no mistake over five furlongs and eased to a nice finish. That came before another high-profile success in the Premiere Stakes over six furlongs and perhaps there’s more to come.
Joliestar could be a good each-way option, with Chris Waller saddling a horse who ran well at Randwick recently when finishing second. The Australian horse performed well at Royal Ascot when finishing third in the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes as the favourite, with the runner-up spot back Down Under coming in the Yarraman Park Shorts.
