Racing career of Oliveanotherday

Overview

The four-year-old gelding Oliveanotherday, trained by Tom Dabernig, secured a Group 3 victory in The Heath 1100 Stakes at Caulfield, winning by 1.5 lengths. This performance established the horse as a betting favourite for the Manikato Stakes.

Following this win, Oliveanotherday finished fifth in the Group 2 Bobbie Lewis Quality at Flemington. Trainer Tom Dabernig attributed this result to the horse’s first experience on a straight track and specific track conditions. As the horse prepares for its Group 1 debut in the $2 million Manikato Stakes at Caulfield, Dabernig expressed hope for rain to improve the track surface, noting that the horse typically performs better on softer ground.

The 2026 Manikato Stakes, a $2 million Group 1 weight-for-age sprint, is scheduled to take place at Caulfield in Melbourne due to redevelopment at The Valley. The race features a field of 13 runners. While Oliveanotherday is among the notable contenders, the current betting favourite is the Chris Waller-trained Beiwacht, who is seeking a third consecutive Group 1 victory following a performance in the Memsie Stakes. Other contenders include Bivouac and Napoleonic.
