TS Carlyon Cup News
The TS Carlyon Cup is a Group 3 status race for milers run at Caulfield Racecourse* on C.F. Orr Stakes Day in February.
*In 2023 the 2023 TS Carlyon Cup and C.F. Orr Stakes Day card ran at Ladbrokes Park Hillside, Sandown.
CF Orr Stakes Day is the first Group 1 race meeting of the Melbourne Autumn Racing Carnival and is headlined by the CF Orr Stakes (1400m). A number of Group 2 and 3 status races also take place on the card including the Group 2 Rubiton Stakes (1100m), Group 2 Autumn Stakes (1400m), the two Blue Diamond Prelude races and the TS Carlyon Cup.
Contested over 1600m the Carlyon Cup is an open set weights plus penalties event offering $200,000 in total prize money. Horses may come into the Carlyon Cup field via an earlier summer – autumn lead-up or contest the event first-up.
Possible later targets for TS Carlyon Cup graduates include the Group 2 Peter Young Stakes (1800m) back at the track a fortnight later before the Group 1 Australian Cup (2000m) at Flemington in early March.
Miss Siska (2020) and Avilius (2019) are the latest runners to complete the TS Carlyon Cup – Peter Young Stakes double. Aviilus also franked the form later in the autumn taking out Sydney’s Group 1 Ranvet Stakes (2000m) – Tancred Stakes (2400m) double at Rosehill. The last Carlyon Cup – Australian Cup double winner meanwhile was Manighar (2012).
The 2022 Carlyon Cup form was franked with the runner-up Callsign Mav returning in the spring to win the Group 1 Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes (1400m). Spanish Mission meanwhile ran third in both the 2022 Carlyon Cup and Group 1 Australian Cup results that autumn.
The TS Carlyon Cup 2023 ran on Saturday February 11, 2023 at Ladbrokes Park Hillside, Sandown and saw the Peter Moody-trained Pounding ($8) secure a third win on the trot.
