(South Australian Oaks)

The first South Australian Oaks was run over 10 furlongs on Saturday, October 13, 1951 and was won by Mr H W Bowyer’s bay filly, Gay Comedy.
Gay Comedy was trained by her owner and ridden by Ossie Phillips.
Only one winner of the South Australian Oaks has gone on to win the VRC Oaks and that filly was Goliette in 1969.
When the international pattern system was implemented in Australia in 1980, the South Australian Oaks was graded as a Group 1 race. In 2005 the Oaks was downgraded to Group 2 and in 2007 it was downgraded again to its current Group 3 status.
In 2009 the name was changed to S A Fillies Classic.
The most successful trainer of winners of the South Australian Oaks is Colin Hayes, who saddled up the winner on 8 occasions, including 5 consecutive winners between 1973 and 1977.
Colin Hayes’s winners:
1959 Rose Of Summer – 1971 Persian Bronze – 1973 Ready Or Not
1974 Fondness – 1975 Ace Queen – 1976 In Pursuit
1977 Deesse – 1983 Casey Belle
Riding honours rest with Bill Pyers who rode the winner on 7 occasions, including 5 consecutive winners between 1955 and 1959.

1952 Sadiya – 1953 Never Rest – 1955 Wine Lover – 1956 Sleep Tight
