VICTORIA DERBY PRIZE MONEY

Fast facts

Four generations of the famous Cummings family have trained winners of the Victoria Derby: Jim Cummings won with Comic Court in 1948; Bart won it five times; Anthony won it in 2012 with Fiveandahalfstar; and James won with Prized Icon in 2016.

Gai Waterhouse is the only woman to train the winner of the Victoria Derby, taking home the honours wiith Nothin’ Leica Dane in 1995.

Clare Lindop (Rebel Raider, 2008), and Jamie Kah (Goldrush Guru, 2024) are the only female jockeys to win the famous classic.

The fastest horse to win the Victoria Derby is Star Of The Realm, who ran it down in 2.33.60 minutes in 1991.

The first Victoria Derby winner was the filly Rose of May and since then, another 12 fillies have won the Victoria Derby, but none since Frances Tressady in 1923.

The most recent filly to place in the Derby at Flemington racecourse was Born To Be Queen, who was third in 1985.
