CASTERTON Cup day returned on Sunday to entertain an uncapped crowd for the first time since 2019, with bigger stakes and a TV feature broadcasting to all of Australia.

Intermittent showers could not dampen the spirits of the 2000 attendees as Brawl took out the Casterton Cup and Elvison claimed the Two Rivers Steeplechase title in spectacular style.
