Notable sprinters to win the race are Chief De Beers (1995, 1998), Falvelon (2001-02), Prince Triala in 1990-91, and Black Onyx in 1969-70.[1] Included in the list are former greats Bernborough in 1946, Manikato in 1979.[1] Recently champion sprinters Apache Cat and Takeover Target captured this race.[1] Sea Siren was the first three-year-old filly to win the race in 2012.[1]
