Damian Lane will head to New Zealand for the rich Karaka Millions meeting later this month.

The star Australian jockey has secured several key bookings and will ride Torture for Lindsay Park in the Karaka Millions 2YO (1200 metres) on January 24.

He’s also booked to ride Espionage (Zoustar) in the Group 1 Sistema Railway (1200 metres) for Mark Walker and Sam Bergerson.

That name will be familiar for plenty of Australian racing fans, with Espionage a former highly-touted galloper in the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott stable.

The horse was last seen in Australia finishing fifth behind the super talented Autumn Glow (The Autumn Sun) in the Theo Marks over 1300 metres in September.

The son of Zoustar finished third in his first run in New Zealand.

Lane is also booked to ride Checkmate (NZ) (Mongolian Khan) in the Group 3 Elsdon Park Aotearoa Classic (1600 metres) and To Cap It All (Capitalist) in the Group 3 Cambridge Stud Almanzor Trophy (1200 metres).
