About the Australian Cup

The 2017 Australian Cup was won by the brilliant Humidor beating the just as brilliant favourite Jameka and Exospheric. The Australian Cup is a race for elite gallopers and has a long history of producing winners who quite often go on to be stars of the Australian turf.

Some of those gallopers that have won the Australian Cup include Zipping (2010), Makybe Diva (2005), Lonhro (2004), Northerly (2003 & 2001), Octagonal (1997), Saintly (1996), Better Loosen Up (1991) and Vo Rogue (1990-89).

The St George Stakes held at Caulfield on Blue Diamond Stakes day 25 February is a great guide in recent years with Fiorente (2014), Lonhro (2004), Northerly (2001), Dane Ripper (1998), Let’s Elope (1992) & Vo Rogue (1989) all taking out the St George Stakes & Australian Cup double.
