The Memsie Stakes was first run at Caulfield racecourse on Saturday September 2 1899 over a distance of 1 mile. The race was won by Mr J. H. Davis’s Veneda.The race distance was increased the following year to 1 mile and 1 furlong (9 furlongs) and stayed at that distance until 1971 when it was again reduced to 1 mile. The distance was reduced again in 1980 to 1400 metres and has stayed at that distance ever since.

The Memsie Stakes is traditionally run in early September and is the first of  Victoria's Group 1 races for the new racing year

Many great gallopers have won the Memsie Stakes over the decades, greats like Eutythmic, Heroic, Phar Lap, Hall Mark, Ajax, Comic Court, Rising Fast, Lord and Manikato, to name just a few.

Eleven horses have won the Memsie on more than one occasion including the great WFA champion, Lord who won the Memsie for 4 consecutive years between 1958 and 1961:

Eurythmic 1920/21/22 – Heroic 1925/26 – Waltzing Lily 1933/34 – Ajax 1938/39/40 – Comic Court 1949/50 – Coppice 1954/55 – Lord 1958/69/60/61  Yangtze 1965/66 – Sir Boom 1996 & 1999 – Sunline 2000/01 – Behemoth 2020/21.

The most successful trainer of winners of the Memsie is Jack Holt who saddled up the winner on 11 occasions:

W. Williamson: 1944 Lawrence – 1946 Noble Prince – 1952 Peshawar              1956 Rising Fast – 1957 Syntax
