On Saturday, jockey Craig Williams is headed to Australia's richest horse race, The Everest, in Sydney, with his undefeated horse Giga Kick.

With the race sitting at $15 million, Xav questioned how Craig manages his mindset on race day.

"Keep it simple, the barriers are there. You've got to beat any other horse that's in that race and the winning post doesn't move," Craig said on Xav and Michelle for Breakfast.

He said he is confident his horse will be strong competition on the day.

"The way that this horse fights, the way that he gallops and the way that he loves to win. I want to be part of his journey."

Craig also mentioned his potential return to Perth.

"I've actually got a decision to make, whether i'm in Perth for the Railway or at Ballarat for the Cup, or I'm actually being asked to go to Singapore for the Gold Cup."

"Fingers crossed and hopefully my manager makes the right decision."
