G1 1200m ROSEHILL Saturday 23 March

The richest race for two year olds anywhere in the world got richer and the Golden Slipper is the highlight of the Rosehill section of the Sydney Autumn Carnival.

Traditionally run at a hectic pace, there can be trouble but on many occasions the best horse has won anyway and we’ve seen some elite thoroughbreds take the prize recently with Pierro being the obvious example.

Nearly every winner since 2003, bar Vancouver, has found the fence at some stage saving all the ground.

Well that occurred again as Shinzo drew the inside, hugged the fence and got him home courtesy of a brilliant Ryan Moore ride as the saddle almost came off the 2yo. It gave Chris Waller his first Golden Slipper.

G1 2000m FLEMINGTON Saturday 30 March

The main WFA contest during the Victorian Autumn is run over the championship distance.

With it being conducted at Flemington, every horse gets its chance and the race is usually run at a cracking tempo. Melbourne Cup winners have had an excellent record in the race because of that fact.

For a WFA race though, there have been some monumental upsets in the Cup like Dandy Andy in 1988 and others recently too have been roughies.

The Cummings name has a great record in this event and in 2023 they made it back to back with James’s Cascadian following Edward’s win with his top mare Duais.



The race now ends the carnival two weeks after the All-Star Mile.

G1 1600m RANDWICK Saturday 6 April

Probably the highlight of most Autumns, the Doncaster brings together the best horses in a handicap race over the famous Randwick mile.

Now worth a massive $4m, it doesn’t matter what barrier you draw as you just need momentum at the right time once you top the rise.

Two of the champs of the turf were dual winners of this race in the last 30 years as Sunline competed in three Doncasters for two wins and a second while one of the greatest milers of them all Super Impose started his string of four straight Randwick mile victories with the 1990 renewal.

Mr Brightside was a strong winner in 2022 and he would go back to back a year on – this time with Zac Purton up. Randwick milers always run well in big Randwick miles.

MR BRIGHTSIDE (Zac Purton/Ben & JD Hayes)
Barrier 2 - 55.5kg - $6
2nd My Oberon (J Allen)/3rd Nugget (A Gibbons)

G1 1200m RANDWICK Saturday 6 April

While the TJ Smith Stakes only has a relatively short lifespan, it is now the pre-eminent G1 sprint race in the country, being at WFA.

Increased to $3m as part of The Championships, it has been the benchmark for most performances under a mile in Australia in recent years.

While it was hard to go past the end of an era as Black Caviar won her 25th and final race start in 2013, it was her win over Hay List in 2011 that must go down as one of the great races. Then we had the great Chautauqua going BOOM!!

The Everest winner was here in 2023 but in the end, he got run down by the Golden Eagle winner as I Wish I Win came from last on the wet track.

2023 TJ Smith Stakes Race Details:
I WISH I WIN (Luke Nolen/Peter Moody)
Barrier 12 - 58.5kg - $9
2nd Giga Kick (Z Purton)/3rd Mazu (S Clipperton)

G1 2400m RANDWICK Saturday 6 April

The premier Derby in Australia is worth $2m as part of the first day of The Championships in the Sydney Autumn Carnival.

Sometimes a great pointer to races like the Caulfield Cup more than WFA contests to come, much of the form comes from the Rosehill Guineas - and yet before 2013, the previous dual winner was Sky Heights in 1999. Strangely it happened again in 2014.

While there have been some top recent winners, the 1996 edition will take some beating as it was the clash between Octagonal, Saintly, Filante and Nothin’ Leica Dane - some stars there.

Gai Waterhouse had won everything there was except an Australian Derby but she finally had success now with Adrian Bott as Major Beel led all the way.

G1 1400m RANDWICK Saturday 6 April

The second leg of the Two Year Old Triple Crown, the Sires is, for most, their first attempt at the 1400m.

Golden Slipper winners had previously backed up and since 1990 seven times they’ve done the double. However in recent seasons few have tried off the Slipper despite there being a two week break.

Chris Waller had never trained a Sydney G1 2yo winner until 2023 and then went back to back as Militarize followed up the Slipper win of Shinzo.

G1 2000m RANDWICK Saturday 13 April

The Queen Elizabeth Stakes has changed for many reasons. The prize money not the least of that. But the race itself cannot get any more exciting from an historical standpoint than some of late.

Winx’s swansong was as big an occasion as the Everests have become and her 33rd win on the trot was incredible.

But a new guard had to take over and we saw a high quality field of international reckoning in 2020 with runners from Australia, New Zealand, Japan and England competing.

William Haggas was the forerunner to international competition and he was successful again bringing down Dubai Honour for multiple G1 victories. It would send Anamoe into retirement as well.

G1 3200m RANDWICK Saturday 13 April

The Sydney Cup has regained a lot of status in recent years with great contests.

The field sizes tell you as much and many of the big stables target the race again. We saw Chris Waller to the fore in 2019 following Winx’s 100th major as Shraaoh added another to that amazing list for the master trainer.

Not often Derby winners come back as good stayers but for Explosive Jack he just loved Randwick. It gave Dylan Gibbons his first G1 success in the first race he’d even ridden over the trip.

G1 2400m RANDWICK Saturday 13 April

The best of the Oaks’ run in Australia, the Australian Oaks is at the right time of year for the fillies to have matured and show they will run the mile and a half right out.

There are many famous winners of the Oaks but ironically it was one that lost that holds most fascination. In 2015 this was the last race that Winx lost before her astonishing picket fence run of form to her finale.

This has become the race for the kiwis and while it wasn’t one trained over there, it was one who had raced there and ended up with Chris Waller with Verry Elleegant taking the Vinery Stud Stakes/Australian Oaks double in 2019.

They were at it once more last year with Pennyweka taking the Oaks double in dominant fashion in a strong test on the wet track.

G1 1600m RANDWICK Saturday 13 April

One of the major alterations to the Sydney Autumn Carnival was the moving of the Queen Of The Turf from Rosehill to Randwick.

It provided a greater point of distinction between the Coolmore Classic at handicap status and the WFA version in this race - both of which were previously run a fortnight apart at the same track and distance.

Now a month apart, and 100m further, this provides a championship end for the girls.

Atishu had always shown she had a devastating turn of foot but often was too far off them to win. This time, off the inside gate, she was there on the corner and it was no contest up the running.
