Saturday's Day 2 of The Star Championships at Royal Randwick included the 12th running of the prestigious Nathan Berry Medal introduced by Racing NSW in 2014.
The Nathan Berry Medal is awarded to the most successful jockey over the 12 races of The Star Championships and pays tribute to the former top jockey who passed away in early April 2014.
The Medal point score is determined on a 3-2-1 basis across the 10 Group races along with the Finals of the Country and Provincial-Midway Championships.
Champion jockey James McDonald missed Day 1 but was able to overhaul the leaders on Day 2 to land 11 points and win the Medal for the fifth time.
