Ka Ying Rising ran out a brilliant winner of the $20m TAB Everest at Randwick on Saturday morning.
The Hong Kong superstar was sent off the even-money favourite for Australia's most prestigious sprint and produced a dazzling display.
Sitting third through the early stages behind the trailblazing Overpass, Zac Purton angled him out for a run at the leader shortly after turning for home.
He found the necessary acceleration to go to the front inside the final 200 metres and draw a length-and-a-quarter clear.
Tempted made late headway to take second for Godolphin with Jimmysstar, who was alongside the winner for much of the contest, third.
