Kingsford-Smith Cup

The race has been growing in status and was elevated to Group 1 in 2006 and has been won by some notable sprinters such as Apache Cat and Black Caviar. In 2017 the Brisbane Racing Club moved the race from Doomben Racecourse to Eagle Farm Racecourse and renamed the race after Australian aviator Charles Kingsford Smith. Name • 1964–1982 - J.T.
