2026 ATC Sires’ Produce Stakes Results

Stay tuned for the official 2026 Inglis Sires’ results and finishing order at Randwick on Saturday April 4, 2026.

  • 2nd: No. 13 Miss Chanel

Winning Time: 1:24.80

Trainer Chris Waller celebrated his second Inglis Sires’ win in 2026 with his progressive Snitzel colt Campione D’italia ($4.20) improving on his lead-up Golden Slipper fourth to charge home late and score a three-quarter length victory off another brilliant ride by record-breaking jockey James McDonald. The strong win, which suggests he’ll be able to run out a mile, has seen him shoot to the top of all-in betting on the Group 1 Champagne Stakes on April 18 at $2.60 through Ladbrokes.com.au.

ATC Sires Produce Stakes Tips

Stay tuned for our insider Inglis Sires’ 2026 Tips & Best Bets on the two-year-olds’ showdown this autumn at Randwick.

Each Way: No. 4 Campione D’italia

Streisand has the talent, no doubt, but with fillies historically struggling in the Inglis Sires’, I’m hunting for value and landing firmly on the rapidly improving CAMPIONE D’ITALIA (3). Chris Waller trains, James McDonald rides, and barrier three gives him the perfect platform—three big ticks straight away. The Snitzel colt has come a long way in a short time: he was tailed off on debut in the Lonhro Plate, then surged to a narrow but gritty maiden win in the G2 Skyline Stakes at 40/1. Thrown straight into the deep end in the Golden Slipper at just his third start, he produced a huge run from near last to finish fourth, attacking the line like a horse crying out for 1400m. That performance, combined with his pattern, screams “big improver” here. He’s already won at Randwick, he finally gets conditions to suit, and he still has plenty of upside. For mine, he’s the value and the one capable of taking a big step forward.

ATC Sires Produce Stakes News

The ATC Sires’ Produce Stakes – also known as the Inglis’ Sires Produce – is a Group 1 race for the season’s best two-year-olds. Worth $1,000,000 in prize money, the 1400m event is a set weights race with colts and geldings carrying 56.5kg and fillies carrying 54.5kg.

The prizemoney for the 2020 Inglis Sires’ was reduced to $500,000 to help cope with the financial strain of the COVID-19 pandemic on Australian racing before being boosted back to $1 million in 2021.

The race is held on one of the biggest race days in Sydney – Doncaster Mile Day – that runs on the first Saturday in April as Day 1 of ‘The Championships’. The meeting has a total of four Group 1 races with the Group 1 ATC Australian Derby (2400m), Group 1 TJ Smith Stakes (1200m) and the Group 1 Doncaster Mile (1600m) the other highlights on the card.

This is the first event greater than 1200m for all two-year-old horses competing in the Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival and is therefore used as a guide to the upcoming Group 1 Champagne Stakes (1600m), which is held on the final day of the Randwick Autumn Racing Carnival two weeks after the ATC Sires Produce Stakes.

The ATC Sires Produce Stakes / Champagne Stakes double has recently been achieved by the likes of Guelph (2013), Pierro (2012), Helmet (2011), and Militarize (2023).

Many of the horses that make up the ATC Sires Produce Stakes field come off a run in the Group 1 Golden Slipper (1200m) at Rosehill in March, which is the world’s richest race for juveniles. The last two-year-olds to win the Golden Slipper Stakes – ATC Sires Produce double were Pierro (2012), King’s Legacy (2020) who won the first leg as a $19 outsider in betting and the brilliant filly Fireburn (2022).

Campione D’italia (4th in 2026) was the last Inglis Sires’ winner to come via a lead-up run in the Golden Slipper.

In 2021 Anamoe improved on a lead-up second in the Golden Slipper to win the Inglis Sires’ and went on to frank the form that spring winning the Group 1 Caulfield Guineas (1600m) before a thrilling second in that year’s Group 1 Cox Plate (2040m) in Melbourne.

The 2022 Inglis Sires’ form was franked with the winning filly Fireburn running second next-up in the Champagne Stakes results. She’s Extreme meanwhile improved on her Sires’ second to win the Champagne Stakes that year before returning in the spring to run top three in a number of Group 1 races including her victory in the VRC Oaks in Melbourne.

Chris Waller’s upset Inglis Sires’ 2023 winner Militarize improved on luckless 13th in that year’s Golden Slipper results won by his stablemate Shinzo.

Militarize went on to win that year’s Champagne Stakes at his next start and further franked the 2023 Inglis Sires’ form in the spring winning the Group 1 Golden Rose Stakes (1400m).

The 2024 Inglis Sires’ winner also came via the Slipper with Manaal improving on her lead-up fifth to beat home the boys over further.

Waller won the Inglis Sires’ for the second time in 2026 with Campione D’italia.

2026 ATC Inglis Sires’ Produce Stakes Betting

The updated ATC Inglis Sires’ Produce Stakes 2026 betting odds across the autumn will be available at Ladbrokes.com.au and also published here at Races.com.au.

Anamoe ($1.90 in 2021) followed by that year’s Slipper winning filly Fireburn ($2.50 in 2022) and Vinrock ($3.40 in 2025) are the latest favourites in Inglis Sires’ betting to salute for the punters.

There was a notable upset in 2023 with Militarize winning at Inglis Sires’ odds of $21 for Chris Waller, while the sole filly in that year’s race Pier Pressure added further value to the trifecta running third at 150/1.

ATC Sires Produce Stakes History

The ATC Sires’ Produce Stakes was first run in 1867 over a one-mile distance. First won by Glencoe, the race forms the middle leg of the Australian Two-Year-Old “Triple Crown”, which also consists of the Golden Slipper Stakes (1200m) and Champagne Stakes (1600m).

The biggest upset in recent ATC Sires’ Produce Stakes history occurred in 2018 when the roughie maiden from Newcastle El Dorado Dreaming defeated the favourite Oohood to the line in an all-filly quinella.

Notable ATC Sires Produce Stakes winners include Ajax (1937), Tulloch (1957), Luskin Star (1977), Snippets (1987), Octagonal (1995), Dance Hero (2004), Sebring (2008), Helmet (2011), Pierro (2012), Yankee Rose (2016), Anamoe (2021), Fireburn (2022), and Militarize (2023).

The 2020 Inglis Sires’ was run during the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic in front of a spectator-free grandstand and saw co-trainer Peter Snowden win the race for the fifth time with King’s Legacy.

Trainer Chris Waller celebrated his maiden Inglis Sires’ victory in 2023 with an upset win by Militarize ($21) who was ridden to victory by Brazilian hoop Joao Moreira.
