Flight Stakes (GR1)
2024 total prize money: $750,000
1st $430,000, 2nd $141,000, 3rd $71,500
The Flight Stakes was named in honour of the great race mare, Flight, who won many major races in the 1940s including the 1942 AJC Champagne Stakes, the 1944 Adrian Knox Stakes (later AJC Oaks), 1945 & 46 W S Cox Plate, 1946 AJC Plate (later QEII Stakes) & 1946 Mackinnon Stakes to name a few.
The Flight Stakes is run
in late September/early October as part of the Sydney autumn carnival.
The first Flight Stakes
was run in 1947 (the year that Flight
was retired) over a distance of 1 mile and was won by the smart filly Nizam’s Ring who would go on to win the VRC Oaks at Flemington a few weeks later.
Many great fillies have
won the Flight Stakes, fillies such as –
Wenona Girl, Cap D’Antibes, Bounding Away, Research, Triscay, Angst, Sunline
& Streama.
In 1985 the Flight Stakes
was awarded Group 1 status.
The most successful
trainer of winners of the Flight Stakes is T.
J. Smith who saddled up the winner on thirteen
occasions.
TJ’s winners are:
1961 Hoa Hine – 1962 Jan’s Image
– 1966 Candy Floss
