Golden Slipper History

Staged during the Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival, the Golden Slipper is the world’s richest two-year-old race and is held at Rosehill Gardens Racecourse each year.

It is considered one of four Grand Slam races on the Australian racing calendar with the Melbourne Cup, Caulfield Cup and Cox Plate representing the other three majors.

Taking Group 1 status for the first time in 1980, the Golden Slipper was won by Todman during its inaugural running in 1957 as he dispatched rivals by eight lengths.

Remarkably his sire, Star Kingdom, was also the sire of the next four winners of the Golden Slipper.

Carrying $3.5 million worth of prizemoney, the race attracts the speediest of the two-year-old brigade and is a set-weights race open to males and females.

The 1200m start is located in a chute in the middle of the course where there is a long straight run to the first turn; it is possible to win from an outside gate when the track conditions are suiting horses that are finishing on down the centre of the track.

As this is the second of three consecutive weekends of racing at this track during the autumn carnival, the rail can often be moved out and horses will race wide in search of better going, particularly if the ground is rain affected.

There are a number of lead-up races prior to the Golden Slipper Stakes; these races include the Reisling Stakes, the Magic Night Stakes for fillies, the Todman Stakes and the Pago Pago Stakes for colts & geldings.

These lead-up races are all named after past winners of the race with Reisling (1965), Magic Night (1961), Todman (1957) and Pago Pago (1963) being famous winners of the two-year-old feature.

Other former winners of the Golden Slipper include Storm Queen (1966), Sweet Embrace (1967), Vain (1969), Baguette (1970), Luskin Star (1977), Manikato (1978), Marscay (1982), Rory’s Jester (1985), Courtza (1989), Tierce (1991), Burst (1992), Danzero (1994), Catbird (1999), Dance Hero (2004), Stratum (2005), Miss Finland (2006), Sebring (2008), Sepoy (2011), Pierro (2012), Vancouver (2015), Capitalist (2016) and She Will Reign (2017).

The race is also the first leg of the Sydney two-year-old Triple Crown with only six horses going on to complete the rare feat of the Golden Slipper, Sires Produce Stakes (1400m) and the Champagne Stakes (1600m).

Pierro won the Triple Crown in 2012 and now joins the elite group of Baguette (1970), Luskin Star (1977), Tierce (1991), Burst (1992) and Dance Hero (2004) to complete the rare treble.
