Cameron Handicap

 


         Cameron Handicap (GR3)

                                      2024 total prize money $250,000
                           1st $141,400, 2nd $46,250, 3rd $22,400



     
                                                  James G Cameron
                                  


The James G Cameron Stakes was first run over a distance of 1 mile at Newcastle’s Broadmeadow Racecourse on November 30, 1935 and was won by the Sydney galloper, Dermid.
The race was named in honour of the Chairman of the Newcastle Jockey Club, Mr James George Cameron.
It was James Cameron who kept the Jockey Club afloat during the depression years by personally acting as guarantor to the banks in order to keep the racecourse operating.
The race was not run the following year (1936) though it returned in 1937 as the James G Cameron Handicap.
After a one-off name change to the Shortland Handicap in 1947, the name reverted back to the Cameron Handicap the following year and has remained so ever since.
The distance of the Cameron Handicap has changed many times throughout its history.
Distances varied between 8 furlongs and 7 furlongs during the imperial measurements era, and since metric was introduced in 1972, we’ve seen it run at 1400m, 1300m, and 1500m, where it currently stands. 


Four horses have won the Cameron Handicap on more than one occasion.
The first of these four horses was the Kempsey owned country galloper, Homeleigh Dick, who won the Cameron on three occasions: 1946, 1947 & 1949.
Without Reproach won consecutive Camerons’ in 1969/70
Romantic Dream won in 1976 & 1979 and Rock won back-to-back Camerons’ in 2019 & 2020.

The most successful trainer of winners of the Cameron Handicap is Tommy Smith who has saddled-up the winner on seven occasions:
1945 Bragger – 1961 Martello Towers – 1962 Rush Bye – 1973 Drifted In
1974 Americano – 1975 Hartshill – 1979 Romantic Dream 

Kevin Langby holds riding honours for the Cameron having ridden the winner on five occasions:
1970 Without Reproach – 1972 Ochre – 1973 Drifted In – 1974 Americano  
1975 Hartshill
