Mark Waugh played 368 first class matches in his cricketing career including 128 Tests, the third most by an Australia. He also played 244 One Day Internationals.

Waugh was one of the worlds’ most elegant and gifted strokemakers. A true entertainer who put team before personal milestones.

He scored over 8000 test and one day runs for Australia and made 80 first class tons, second only to Bradman by an Australian. He holds the world record for the most test catches at 181 and is the leading one day run scorer for Australia with the highest score of 173.

Don Bradman described Mark Waugh “as the most elegant batsman of the modern era”.

Mark’s involvement in horse racing started when his father would take him to Bankstown trots and Warwick Farm racecourse in his early teens. He has always shown a keen interest in following both
harness racing and gallops racing, having been a dedicated form student and punter. His interest later on in both forms of racing has extended into breeding and also success in ownership.

Mark has been a Director of the NSW Harness Racing Club and has filled roles as an ambassador for the
Golden Slipper Carnival with the STC and also for the Cox Plate with the Moonee Valley Race Club.
