Tara Madgwick - Wednesday September 18

Seven year-old Pride of Dubai mare Bella Nipotina, soared to new heights last season and has become the third sprinter selected for a slot in the $20m The TAB Everest next month.

Slot-holder TAB has been negotiating for some weeks with the owners of Bella Nipotina owners before striking a deal on Tuesday.

Trained by Ciaron Maher, she joins I Wish I Win and three year-old gelding Bustling as confirmed for the field, although Bustling did not impress in his first Sydney start last Saturday when beating only one runner home in the Group II ATC Run to the Rose.

Bella Nipotina was flying this time last year finishing third to Everest winner Think About It in the Group II ATC Premiere Stakes, third in the consolation $3million Sydney Stakes on Everest day and then she beat Think About It and Private Eye to win the $3million Giga Kick Stakes following on from the Everest in which she did not gain a start.

TAB will get a great run for their money from this well seasoned $11million earner this year.
