Ladbrokes Tip: The Victory Stakes serves as the key lead-up to the rescheduled Doomben 10,000.
The Ladbrokes Doomben 10,000 is now the first Group 1 race of the Brisbane Winter Racing Carnival after the 2017 changes saw it moved forward a fortnight. Taking place on a Saturday in early – mid May at Doomben Racecourse, the Doomben 10,000 is a weight-for-age sprint now contested over 1200m having previously been run over 1350m. Offering $1,500,000 in prize money after a stakes increase in 2023 the race now serves as a nice lead-up to the Group 1 BTC Cup (1300m) – which from 2017 has been known as the Kingsford Smith Cup.

Sea Siren (2012) was the last horse to complete the previous BTC Cup – Doomben 10,000 double when the former was held two weeks before over 1200m, before The Bostonian (2019) won both races (the Doomben 10,000 – Kingsford Smith Cup double) in reverse order following the changes to the winter line-up.
The Doomben 10,000 horses are likely to come off a Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival campaign or have had an earlier Queensland lead-up at Eagle Farm in the Group 2 Victory Stakes (1200m) in Brisbane. In 2021 the Doomben 10,000 winner Eduardo came off a lead-up third in Sydney’s Group 1 TJ Smith Stakes.
Following a Doomben 10,000 run, gallopers are likely to follow the new winter path into the Kingsford Smith Cup over 1300m and then into the Group 1 Stradbroke Handicap (1400m) in June – Queensland’s richest race.
The key support races on the Doomben 10,000 Day program are the Group 2 Spirit Of Boom Classic for two-year-olds and the Queensland Derby-bound three-year-olds facing off in the Group 3 Rough Habit Plate.
The latest edition of the Ladbrokes Doomben 10,000 ran on Saturday May 18, 2024 at Doomben Racecourse kicking off Group 1 racing in Queensland for the winter and was won in an impressive first-up performance by Ciaron Maher’s mare Bella Nipotina ($7).

Ladbrokes Doomben 10,000 Betting
Ladbrokes Doomben 10,000 betting markets open pre-field with futures odds offering value for punters and Victory Stakes graduates set to dominate the all-in prices. The Doomben 10,000 odds firm once the final field is released and offers a safer bet for punters.
Horses drawn well with a barrier between 1 – 5 usually firm in Doomben 10,000 betting, with the last winner to jump from a double digit gate being Mr Innocent (12 of 15) in 2000. This has been ever more notable since 2017 when the race distance dropped from 1350m to a genuine 1200m sprint.
Favourites in the Doomben 10,000 odds have a strong record in the past decade with eight saluting for the punters from 2007 – 2023 including most recently Spirit Of Boom ($4.75 equal favourite in 2014), Eudardo ($1.70 in 2021), the three-year-old Mazu ($3.30 in 2022) and fellow three-year-old Giga Kick ($1.65 in 2023).
The biggest upset in recent times took place in 2019 with Kiwi galloper The Bostonian saluting at Doomben 10,000 odds of 40/1.

The Ladbrokes Doomben 10,000 race field attracts a line-up of the season’s best weight-for-age sprinters and from 2017 after being moved forward two weeks, became a winter carnival kick-off point for sprinters.
The largest Doomben 10,000 field in recent years was 20 starters when Red Oog won from the inside barrier in 2005. The only time in over 30 years the Doomben 10,000 field featured under 10 runners was when Beaded defeated just six rivals in a seven-starter field in 2011.
Horses come into the Doomben 10,000 field via a number of races, but after the race was moved in 2017 the Group 2 Victory Stakes (1200m) in Brisbane is now the key lead-up event.
In 2023 ace three-year-old Giga Kick won the Doomben 10,000 off a lead-up Sydney victory in the Group 1 All Aged Stakes (1400m) the month prior.
Doomben 10,000 nominations close on a Tuesday around two weeks out from the event, with the final field of acceptances closing on the Tuesday of race week.

Ladbrokes Doomben 10,000 Form Guide
The Doomben 10,000 form guide features all the must know info and stats for punters looking to place a well-informed wager on the race including the jockeys, trainers, barriers and lead-up runs of all the horses in the field.
Barrier seven produced five of the Doomben 10,000 winners from 2007 – 2024 – including Music Magnate in 2016 – and is considered the best gate to draw. Sydney visitors have a solid record so watching the Doomben 10,000 form for Sydney-trained horses that ran well in a race like the All Aged Stakes over 1400m at Randwick in the lead-up is important.
The Doomben 10,000 form has stacked up in future Group 1 Brisbane races in recent years including the Stradbroke Handicap (1400m / 1350). In 2015 Boban won the Doomben 10,000 before a Stradbroke second, while Generalife ran third in both races that year.
The 2022 Doomben 10,000 form was franked with the winner Mazu returning in the spring in Sydney to finish top three in a number of big events including his third in The Everest and second in the Winners Stakes. Runner-up Paulele also went on to finish second in the Kingsford Smith Cup results next start before heading to Perth that November and winning the Group 1 Winterbottom Stakes (1200m).
The 2023 Doomben 10,000 also produced that year’s Winterbottom Stakes with the runner-up Overpass improving on his Brisbane run to claim the Perth feature that summer.
Doomben 10,000 Form Facts
- Favourites and equal-favourites in Doomben 10,000 betting have an outstanding strike-rate with Giga Kick ($1.65 in 2023) the last to salute for the punters.
- Fillies and mares have won the race just six times in over 30 years most recently with English (2018) and Bella Nipotina (2024).
- Inside Doomben 10,000 barriers are key and gates one and seven are the most successful since 1983.

Ladbrokes Doomben 10,000 Tips
Doomben 10,000 tips over the past decade have favoured winter sprinters coming off a BTC Cup run. From 2017 however the best betting guide to Doomben 10,000 tipping is the Sydney Autumn Carnival sprint races and the Victory Stakes run over the 1200m in Brisbane two weeks prior.
Horses with proven weight-for-age form, previous Brisbane runs and that are drawn nicely are also useful Doomben 10,000 tips.
2024 Ladbrokes Doomben 10,000 Tips
The Ladbrokes’ exclusive Doomben 10,000 betting tips 2024 will be detailed below the week of the race so bookmark this page for the horses to back and sack.
- To Win: #1 I Wish I Win ($1.95 at time of publish) – BET NOW
There is zero value in the odds-on favourite from the Moody/Coleman camp, but with a small field and a likely rain-affected track I Wish I Win is mighty hard to go past. This Group 1 TJ Smith Stakes champ was narrowly denied another win in that Sydney sprint feature last time out under a half-length back third on a Heavy-rated Randwick course first-up. Fitter now second-up and ready to fire against an easier line-up. Performs well in the wet, loves the 1200m (8:3-3-2), rails-drawn but J-Mac will know how to get him to the best part of the track when it counts. Wins.
Doomben 10,000 Results
Favourites have a credible record in the Doomben 10,000 race results, but notable recent upsets include The Bostonian ($41 in 2019), Boban ($17 in 2015), and Undue ($44 in 2006).
Some of the most famous recent Doomben 10,000 winners include The Everest winning three-year-old Giga Kick (2023), Eduardo (2021), the subsequent inaugural The Everest winner Redzel (2017), Spirit Of Boom (2014), Sea Siren (2012, and dual champion Apache Cat (2008-09).
Bella Nipotina (2024) was the last Doomben 10,000 winning mare.
