Sportsbet Bet With Mates Bonus
The $2 million Sportsbet Bet With Mates Bonus is run during the NSW Spring Carnival over seven nominated sprint races.
The nominated races are the Concorde Stakes, The Shorts, Premiere Stakes, the Everest, Sydney Stakes, The Kosciuszko and Russell Balding Stakes.
For each race the points were allocated 5,4,3,2,1 for finishing first to fifth respectively for each qualifying race with the exception of the Russell Balding Stakes, with this race carrying double points.

| 06-Sep-25 | Concorde Stakes | 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 |
| 20-Sep-25 | The Shorts | 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 |

To be eligible for the bonus, horses need to contest a minimum of three of the seven races forming the series, or two races provided that these race starts are in one of the three qualifying races on Everest Day and the Russell Balding Stakes.
Finally, where an emergency is elevated into the field for the Everest from the Sydney Stakes, and finishes between 6th and 10th inclusive, that horse accumulates one point for the Sportsbet Bet With Mates Bonus.
The bonuses are paid to the top five eligible point-scorers as follows.

| 1st | $1,000,000 |
| 2nd | $500,000 |
