The fourth richest race on turf has been won by I Wish I Win after the gelding held off a strong challenge from Fangirl to claim the $10million race.
The victory is yet another notch in the successful partnership between jockey Luke Nolen and trainer Peter Moody, with the duo famously linking up with Black Caviar.
At Rosehill, I Wish I Win delivered when it mattered most holding off the late charge from Fangirl which rose from the back of the back and nearly stole the win, while Gypsy Goddess came third.
