The $2 million Coolmore Stud Stakes is a Group 1 sprint down the Flemington straight for three-year-olds held on the Saturday before Melbourne Cup Day as part of Victoria Derby Day.
The Coolmore Stud Stakes, formerly known as the Ascot Vale Stakes, is a Group 1 sprint race for three-year-old horses.
This 1200m set weights race has undergone plenty of changes in the past few years as it has elevated into the premier sprint race for the youngsters during the annual Melbourne Cup Carnival in late October or early November each year. Worth $2 million in prize money as of 2022, the race attracts mainly colts looking to increase their stallion value at stud.
Run on Victoria Derby Day at Flemington Racecourse on the Saturday before Melbourne Cup Day on the first Tuesday of November, the Coolmore Stud Stakes was originally held earlier in the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival as a Group 2. When the name was changed in 2007, the Coolmore Stud Stakes became the first Group 1 sprint race under 1600m for three-year-olds. Raced down the straight at Flemington, many horses are first tested in the 1600m Caulfield Guineas before having to freshen up to return over a shorter 1200m in the Coolmore Stud Stakes.
The Coolmore Stud Stakes shares a bumper race card with two other Group 1 events with the Victoria Derby (2500m) and Empire Rose Stakes (1600m) also taking place at Headquarters.
The form of the 2021 Coolmore Stud Stakes was franked with the winner Home Affairs returning the following autumn to win the Group 1 Black Caviar Lightning in 2022 first-up.
The 2022 Coolmore Stud Stakes winning filly In Secret franked the form the following autumn returning to Flemington to beat home the older horses in the 2023 Group 1 Newmarket Handicap (1200m).
The 2023 Coolmore Stud Stakes ran as part of Victoria Derby Day at Flemington on Saturday November 4, 2023 and was won in an all-the-way upset by Bjorn Baker’s progressive Sydney visitor Ozzmosis ($18).

Originally fancied King’s Gambit but following his scratching have landed on the in-form I Am Unstoppable to overcome barrier 12 and win at a price. This Lloyd Williams & Lucy Yeomans-trained I Am Invincible colt is putting together a lovely record and comes off a trio of good placings this prep against some nice rivals. Fresh was third only a quarter length off Cylinder in Caulfield’s Group 3 Vain Stakes before back-to-back seconds at the Flemington track. Like that Archo Nacho form and in the Group 2 Danehill Stakes (1100m) down the straight last start he was brave narrowly beaten with 58kg by Stretan Angel. Going the right way, Blake Shinn rides, can surprise down the ‘Straight Six’.

Ozzmosis (3rd in 2023) was the last Coolmore Stud Stakes winner to come via a lead-up run in Sydney’s Roman Consul Stakes.
