Australian Cup

Click Here to go back to Index


          Australian Cup (GR1)
                                       2024 total prize money: $3,000,000 
                          1st $1,800,000, 2nd $540,000, 3rd $270,000
The Australian Cup was first run in the autumn of 1863 and was won by Mr. Joseph Harper’s three year old colt, Barwon.

The first running was at WFA over two and a quarter miles but it was afterwards changed to a handicap, though the distance remained unchanged.
The Australian Cup stayed as a handicap until 1979 where it became a WFA event, from 1982 to 1986 it reverted back to a handicap but was changed again in 1987 to its current WFA status.

The race distance was changed in 1943 from 2 ¼ miles to 2 miles 1 ½ furlongs, this change was implemented due to 28 horses accepting for the race that year. Because the 2 ¼ mile starting point could only serve 24 runners, the start had to be moved to the straight-six starting point in order to accommodate the 28 starters, thus shortening the race by half a furlong.
In 1963 the race distance was changed to 14 furlongs, this was changed again the following year to 10 furlongs where it still remains at it metric equivalent (2000m) today.

Although many great horses have won the Australian Cup, it doesn’t have the same calibre of winners as its spring counterpart, the Cox Plate.
There’s no Manfred, Phar Lap or Chatham among its winners, no champions like Tulloch, Tobin Bronze or Kingston Town to add some prestige to its profile.
Along with the Newmarket, the Australian Cup is one of the principal races of the autumn carnival.

Training honours for the Australian Cup rest with Bart Cummings who trained the winner on an incredible 13 occasions:
1968 Arctic Coast – 1973 Gladman – 1975 Leilani – 1976 Lord Dudley
1977 Ngawyni – 1978 Ming Dynasty – 1980 Ming Dynasty – 1981 Hyperno
1985 Noble Peer – 1992 Let’s Elope – 1996 Saintly – 1998 Dane Ripper 
2008 Sirmione.

Old time champion jockey Tom Hales holds riding honours with 8 winners, his last 4 being for the all-powerful Hon. James White stable:
1875 Lurline – 1876 Richmond – 1879 Savanaka – 1883 Navigator
1884 Morphet – 1887 Trident – 1888 Carlyon – 1890 Dreadnought.

Seven horses have managed to win the Australian Cup on more than one occasion:
Woodman 1865/66 – Welkin Prince 1962/63 – Craftsman 1965/66
Ming Dynasty 1978 & 80 Vo Rogue 1989/90 – Northerly 2001 & 2003
