More Details About The Moreton Cup
The race is run over 1200 metres and offers a prize of $200,000.
Held alongside the Group 2, Sires Produce Stakes, PJ O'Shea Stakes and Dane Ripper Stakes, the Group 1 Queensland Oaks, and the Group 3 Grand Prix Stakes, the Moreton Cup is one of the main sprint events of the carnival.
The Moreton Cup has been organised by the Brisbane Racing Club since 1979. The Brisbane Racing Club was created out the merger of Brisbane Turf Club and The Queensland Turf Club in 2009. Eagle Farm Racecourse is located 8 kilometres from Brisbane 's CBD and was built in 1865. It has a circumference of 2027 metres and a 434 metre straight, and is considered be one of Australia 's best horse racing tracks.
The Moreton Cup usually attracts an above average group of gallopers rather than high quality horses. The field is usually made up of local horses with a few interstate visitors.
The race suits emerging horses who contest with a lighter weight. Horses usually come here from the Group 3 BTC Cup, which is a handy race held in mid May. After competing here, many horses go on to compete in either the Group 1 Stradbroke Handicap the next week on the same track or the Group 3 WJ Healy Stakes on the final day of the carnival, at the Eagle Farm Racecourse.
Catapulted in 2010 came into this event after completing the Group 1 The Goodwood event at Allan Scott Park, where he placed second.
He then went on to win the Listed Henry Bucks Straight Six at Flemington Races, before winning this event. He was later unplaced in the Group 1 Stradbroke Handicap. Also in 2010, Border Rebel came in after winning the Listed Hinkler Handicap at Eagle Farm, and later a quality handicap at Scone.
He then finished runner up in the Moreton Cup, after which he competed in the Listed Takeover Target, winning it. Ortensia in 2009 won this event after finishing runner up in the Listed James H B Carr Stakes a month before at Randwick Racecourse and also won the Listed Glenlogan Park Stakes at Doomben Racecourse, a fortnight before. She then went on to place third in the Group 1 Stradbroke Handicap.
