Relive the thrill of the 2026 Champions Day at Ellerslie.
Trackside takes you behind the scenes from 'Grand Final day' at Ellerslie Racecourse, capturing the raw emotion as some of racing’s biggest moments unfold in real time.
From the dramatic and sobering fall of Alabama Lass, ridden by Sam Collett, for trainers Ken Kelso and Bev Kelso, to their star mare Legarto’s unforgettable swan song, the day was a powerful mix of triumph and tension - showcasing the highs, the heartbreak, and everything in between.
And the story of Well Written rolls on, the unbeaten star clinging to her perfect record by the narrowest of margins as Stephen Marsh watched on.
