Winx (2015) is one of the most famous Epsom Handicap winners in recent years, the mighty mare going on to make history with four consecutive victories in the Cox Plate (2015-18). Her 2015 Epsom Handicap victory was also her maiden Group 1 success in Sydney.

The 2024 Epsom Handicap winner was the Joe Pride-trained favourite Ceolwulf ($4) who was enormous back in distance off a tardy start to easily account for his rivals and salute for the punters off a gun ride by Chad Schofield.
