The Doomben Cup is a Group 1 Australian thoroughbred horse race for 3 year olds and over, run under Weight for Age conditions over a distance of 2020 metres at Doomben Racecourse, Brisbane in May.
The Doomben Cup race is one of the most fabulous weight-for-age Staying races in Australia. It was initially conducted as a principal race held over more than ten furlongs (from 1933 to 1937). From 1938 onwards, the distance was increased to eleven furlongs. It was converted into a Group 1 race from 1980.
The Gr2 Hollindale Stakes (1800m) held two weeks previously at the Gold Coast is the best guide to this race with Above Deck (2006) being the last horse to win both events. Mr Bureaucrat (2002), Might And Power (1998), Danewin (1995), Durbridge (1994), Rough Habit (1991-92) all won the Hollindale Stakes before winning this race.
