History

The race was changed to the Doomben 10,000 after the £10,000 prize money on offer, which at the time was the richest sprint in Australia.
Notable sprinters to win the race are Chief De Beers (1995, 1998), Falvelon (2001-02), Prince Trialia in 1990–91, and Black Onyx in 1969–70. [1] Included in the list are former greats Bernborough in 1946 and Manikato in 1979. [1]

In July 1951, then apprentice Aboriginal jockey Merv Maynard (whose career spanned nearly five decades, in which he rode over 1,500 winners [2] ) was heading for a win on Waratah King when the horse came down, and he was thrown. Coniston went on to win the race. [3] [4]

Recently,[ when? ] champion sprinters Apache Cat and Takeover Target captured this race. [1] Sea Siren was the first three-year-old filly to win the race in 2012. [1]
