Offering $200,000 in total prize money the Tulloch Stakes serves as a key lead-up to the Group 1 $2 million Australian Derby (2400m) contested at Royal Randwick a week later on Day 1 of ‘The Championships’. Recent horses to complete the Tulloch Stakes – ATC Derby double are Starcraft (2004), Jon Snow (2017), Levendi (2018) and Angel Of Truth (2019).
