The Rubiton Stakes is a Group 2 event hosted in February on CF Orr Stakes Day during the Melbourne Autumn Racing Carnival.
The Rubiton Stakes (1100m) is a Group 2 race held at Melbourne’s Caulfield Racecourse* in early – mid February each year.
*In 2023 the 2023 Rubiton Stakes and C.F. Orr Stakes Day card ran at Ladbrokes Park Hillside, Sandown.
Open to all horses of all ages, the Rubiton Stakes is raced under Set Weights plus Penalties conditions and offers $300,000 in total prize money.
Run on the first Group 1 race meeting of the Melbourne Autumn Racing Carnival – CF Orr Stakes Day – the Rubiton Stakes shares the card with a host of other Group status races:
Held during February, the Rubiton Stakes is an important race for punters and helps to gauge form for later races including the Group 1 Oakleigh Plate (1100m) run over the same track / distance a fortnight later on Blue Diamond Stakes Day. The Rubiton Stakes – Oakleigh Plate double was recently achieved by Lankan Rupee (2014). Rubiton Stakes performers may also head to Sydney and contest Rosehill’s short-distance feature, the Group 1 The Galaxy (1100m) with Nature Strip (2019) the latest to do the Rubiton Stakes – The Galaxy double.
The 2022 Rubiton Stakes form was franked with the runner-up Oxley Road running third next-up in that year’s Oakleigh Plate results.
Lofty Strike franked the 2023 Rubiton Stakes form backing up from his win to finish runner-up in both the Oakleigh Plate and Newmarket Handicap results at his next two starts. Uncommon James meanwhile improved on a Rubiton second to win that year’s Oakleigh Plate and then run second in that year’s Group 1 The Galaxy in Sydney.
The Rubiton Stakes 2024 ran on Saturday February 10, 2024 at Caulfield Racecourse on CF Orr Stakes Day and was won in a first-up upset by Kallos ($16) for the Godolphin stables.

Kallos Upsets in Rubiton, Shinn Steals the Show! In a stunning upset, James Cummings’ Kallos ($16) thundered from behind to snatch victory in the 2024 Rubiton Stakes, pulling the rug out from under heavily favoured Asfoora ($1.80F). Jockey Blake Shinn orchestrated a masterful ride, guiding Kallos on a powerful surge down the outside in the final stages. The five-year-old surged past Asfoora, snatching victory by a thrilling one length in a fresh-up performance that silenced the doubters. This upset victory marks a remarkable resurgence for Kallos and signals an exciting return to form for the Group 1 performer.

Stay tuned for our insider Rubiton Stakes 2024 Tips on the autumn sprint this autumn.
This Written Tycoon mare may be stepping up in class for this Group 2, but her recent form screams potential. Matthew Ellerton’s five-year-old boasts an impressive record (19-8-3-2) and holds a good streak at Caulfield (7:3-0-1). She thrives fresh and thrives at this distance, making her a sneaky contender. Viviane even strung together five straight wins before placing a close third in the Listed Alinghi last October, carrying heavier weight and losing by a mere quarter-length. Starting from a favourable gate five with a reduced weight of 55kg, she shouldn’t be underestimated. While the competition stiffens, Viviane possesses the talent and track record to cause a stir.
The 2024 Rubiton Stakes field and barriers are set for release on the Wednesday of race week and will be published in full below.
The Rubiton Stakes 2024 final field features a line-up of potential Group 1 Oakleigh Plate-bound sprinters led in betting by the resuming Henry Dwyer-trained Caulfield specialist Asfoora.

The Rubiton Stakes was first held in 1989 as a listed event. In 1992 it was upgraded to Group 3, and remained at that level until 2013 when it was first ran as a Group 2 race. The race distance has changed somewhat over the years, with the initial distance of 1000m first changed to 1100m in 1997. In 2006 the race returned to 1000m for a year, but has remained at 1100m since 2007. Prior to 2010, the race was run under weight for age conditions.
A number of renowned horses have seen success in the Rubiton Stakes. Notable Rubiton Stakes winners include Redelva (1991), Schillaci (1993, 1995), Super Elegant (2003, 2004, 2005), and Lankan Rupee (2014).
