NASH Rawiller is correctly regarded as one of Australia’s best jockeys but is usually ranked just below the likes of the top echelon.
His last year though has shown that he should be in the conversation as one of the very best.
James McDonald with a 20% strike rate over the last year sits atop of the tree but then Nash Rawiller sits comfortably alongside the likes of Kah, Bowman, McEvoy, Zahra and Williams.
Rawiller’s strike rate over the past year is 18% which is also exemplary. He’s showing that at the age of 47 he still has the ability to match it with his younger rivals.
On Saturday at Newcastle, he took out another feature race when Vilana won $1 million The Hunter. In recent weeks he has also won the $1 million Silver Eagle on Vilana and the $2 million Big Dance on Rustic Steel.
He also finished second in the VRC Champion Stakes on Mo’unga.
Vilana is heading to Perth to contest the Group 1 Winterbottom Stakes and in his present form he must be a strong chance.
TopSport has him as a $9 chance to take out that Group 1 event over 1200 metres at Ascot on November 26.
