Recently, the 2020 The Shorts winner Classique Legend went on to win the world’s richest turf race saluting in the now $20 million The Everest that season.

In 2021 The Shorts winner Eduardo ran third in that year’s The Everest results behind Nature Strip before winning the Winners Stakes. Nature Strip meanwhile improved on his second in The Shorts results to win The Everest – VRC Sprint Classic double that spring.

The 2022 The Shorts winner Nature Strip claimed the event first-up after his UK victory in the Group 1 King’s Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot ahead of his The Everest title defence for Team Waller.

The Shorts 2023 winner was the resuming Joe Pride-trained Private Eye ($12) who posted an impressive first-up upset ahead of a likely The Everest run where he will be looking to go better than his second to Giga Kick in the world’s richest turf race the spring prior.

The Shorts 2024 winner was the Ciaron Maher-trained favourite I Am Me ($2.60F) with The Everest-bound mare completing the Concorde Stakes – The Shorts double thanks to a big run late off an on speed tactical ride by James McDonald.
