Caloundra Cup 2022

Ladbrokes Tip: The Caloundra Cup makes a nice final lead-up into the Grafton Cup.

The Caloundra Cup is held at the tail-end of the Queensland Winter Racing Carnival the Saturday after Brisbane’s Tattersall’s Tiara Day and takes place at the Corbould Park Racecourse at Caloundra in late June or early July.

A quality handicap race contested over 2400m, the race has been run and won since 1985 and won by a number of nice stayers over the years including Henderson Bay (2001), dual champion Empyreal (2005, 2006) and Index Linked (2015).

The Caloundra Cup currently offers a total of $300,000 in prize money as of 2022 and attracts a strong line-up of winter stayers each year. It takes place on the same day as the Group 3 Winx Guineas (1600m) for three-year-olds.

A good lead-up race is the Listed Ipswich Cup run the week prior or Brisbane’s Group 3 Tattersall’s Cup contested on Tiara Day.

The Caloundra Cup winner is also exempt from ballot for the following Thursday’s $200,000 Listed Grafton Cup (2350m) and Supply And Demand (2017) was the last horse to do the Caloundra Cup – Grafton Cup winter double.

The next edition of the Caloundra Cup runs Saturday July 2nd, 2022.
