kaying rising is fav for the Everest not only because it consistently wins in Hong Kong over 1200 at low 1.7+ the normal ties for races there are mostly around mid to high 1.7+
At Randwick you can get closest to times of 1.8+ for the fastest horses but at Rosehill the times are about 5 lngth slower Briasa is the fastest of our runners while War Machine ran 1.8.57 for the straight six at Flemington
Jimmystar also rates highly.
So dont be entirely put off by the favourites high racing speed. The barrier draw wont make a lot of difference but how the race is run will. We know Briasa can bullock through and close fast..strong enough to tackle Ka Ying… we find out Saturday. I have already taken a bit of th4 $9 on offer.
