History

The race is named in honour of the horse Auraria, winner of the 1895 Melbourne Cup. [1] The race was inaugurated in 1944 by the Port Adelaide Racing Club, but since the club's race track Cheltenham Park Racecourse was unavailable during World War II the race was held at Morphettville Racecourse. [2] The following year the race was run at Cheltenham. [3]
