Doomben 10,000 History
Inaugurated in 1933 as the Doomben Newmarket Handicap, the Doomben 10,000 was named after the amount of prize money that used to be on offer.
It’s one of the premier Queensland sprinting races and has a rich history of producing not only Australasia’s best sprinters, but also those that compete on the world stage.
In more recent years, the infamous Takeover Target and Apache Cat scored a win in the Doomben 10,000 before heading to Royal Ascot where they both had success.
The Doomben 10,000 might not have the glamour that some other Australian Group 1 sprints have, but the winner is always held in high regard and rightfully so.
TJ Smith won the Doomben 10,000 on six occasions and jockey George Moore won five times.

Doomben 10000 Form Guide
Jockey James McDonald overcame a wide gate and extracted every last inch out of Sunshine In Paris to get the nod over Rothfire in a close finish in the 2025 Doomben 10,000.
This added to a recent run of favourites taking out the Doomben sprint feature.
Recent well-backed favourites to have won include Giga Kick (2023), Mazu (2022), and Eduardo (2021).
Since becoming a Group 1 in 1980, there have been three repeat winners; Prince Trialia, Falvelon and Apache Cat, so punters could look for a repeat winner when doing their form.
Due to the timing of the race, many of the autumn sprinters have finishing for the season. That allows the winter types to come through and shine.
