BRC Sprint
Looking for this year’s BRC Sprint betting tips, field and form guide? The experts at Neds have put together everything you need to know before this year’s race.
The BRC Sprint is a Group 3 race run under quality handicap conditions held as part of the Brisbane Winter Racing Carnival in either late May or early June on Doomben Cup Day. The race is currently worth $300,000 with prize money increased ahead of the 2023 edition.
Contested over 1350m, the BRC Sprint serves as a potential lead-up into the Group 1 Stradbroke Handicap (1400m) held at Eagle Farm in mid-June.
In 2019 the BRC Sprint winner Tyzone ran a next-up second in the Stradbroke before improving on his BRC Sprint seventh in 2020 to take out that year’s Stradbroke. In 2021 Tofane improved on a BRC Sprint second to win the Stradbroke next start.
The 2022 Stradbroke Handicap winner Alligator Blood also came via the BRC Sprint having run second in his lead-up.
Run and won since 1985, the race has been claimed by a number of nice horses over the years including the current race record holder Chief De Beers (1:17.50 in 1998) as well as the cult horse Jungle Edge (2017).

The best way to pick which horse will win BRC Sprint in 2024 is to take into account their lead-up winter racing form, assess the barriers and look for the proven Group sprinters in the mix.
Additional factors to consider when picking the BRC Sprint winner include:
- Local Stars: The Queensland-trained horses have a very strong record over the interstate raiders in this race including the 2021 upset by the Robert Heathcote-trained Emerald Kingdom ($31) and the 2022 success by the Toowoomba-trained favourite Soxagon.
- Returning Runners: Horses that have contested previous editions of the BRC Sprint often do well in subsequent attempts at the race.
- Group 1 Grade: Any Group 1 performers down in grade for the BRC Sprint are worth backing.
