Criterion
Hong Kong Jockey Club
Tommy Berry has picked up the mount on Criterion when the New Zealand-bred and owned entire defends his $A4 million Gr.1 Queen Elizabeth Stakes title at Randwick.
The in-form jockey will replace Michael Walker, who has stood himself down in the wake of an unexplained fainting episode at his home on Sunday.
Walker was also booked to partner Criterion's stablemate Almoonqith in the $A1 million Gr.1 Sydney Cup and trainers David Hayes and Tom Dabernig have secured Hugh Bowman to ride the stayer.
