The BJ McLachlan Stakes is a Group 3 race held towards the end of December in Brisbane as a lead-up to the $2 million Magic Millions 2YO Classic in January.
The BJ McLachlan Stakes is a Group 3 sprint run in Brisbane either at Eagle Farm or Doomben Racecourse over the summer in late December.
Held under set weights conditions, the BJ McLachlan Stakes is restricted to two year old runners. Horses race over 1200m seeking a share of $250,000 prize money making it one of the most lucrative Brisbane Summer Racing features.
The BJ McLachlan Stakes previously shared the program with the recently rescheduled Group 3 $250,000 Grand Prix Stakes before that event moved forward a week in 2021.
The Listed Phelan Ready Stakes and Calaway Gal Stakes serve as a nice lead-up into the BJ McLachlan Stakes field. Ours To Keep (2016) followed by Alpine Edge (2020) are the latest youngsters to complete the Phelan Ready – BJ McLachlan Stakes double.
Many of the young horses use the BJ McLachlan Stakes as preparation for the Magic Millions Carnival in January at the Gold Coast Racecourse about a week later where they run in the lucrative $2 million Restricted Listed Magic Millions 2YO Classic (1200m). Coolangatta (2021) was the last BJ McLachlan Stakes winner to back-up and win the Magic Millions 2YO Classic (2022) next start.
In 2020 BJ McLachlan Stakes winner Alpine Edge went on to run second in the 2021 $2 million Magic Millions 2YO Classic.
The race has been won by many nice horses during their two-year-old seasons including in 2019 by King’s Legacy who went on to win the 2020 Group 1 ATC Sires’ Produce Stakes – Champagne Stakes double in Sydney.
The 2021 BJ McLachlan Stakes ran on Sunday December 26, 2021 as part of Brisbane’s Boxing Day races at Doomben Racecourse and was won by the odds-on favourite Coolangatta ($1.30F).
