From the race’s inauguration in 1973, all the way up to 2026, we have a comprehensive list of Phar Lap Stakes winners from past race meets. Included are finishing times, as well as jockey and weight carried to victory by the winners of the Group 2 Phar Lap Stakes race held at Rosehill during the autumn.
Incredibly in 2021 trainer Chris Waller took his record in the race up to six wins in seven years with Hungry Heart is fifth consecutive Phar Lap Stakes winning filly.
The 2022 Phar Lap Stakes winner Mr Mozart bought an end to the run of Waller-trained fillies with an upset at $10.
Trainer Chris Waller continued his outstanding record in the event with the 2023 Phar Lap Stakes winning filly Zougotcha ($1.50F) saluting for the punters ahead of the Doncaster Mile to hand her trainer with his seventh success in nine years.
The 2024 Phar Lap Stakes winner was the James Cummings-trained VRC Oaks champ Zardozi ($13) who improved on her unplaced run fresh in the Group 1 Surround Stakes to return to winning form second-up with a nearly two length romp home at big odds.
The 2025 Phar Lap Stakes winner was Surround Stakes third placed Snitzel filly Lazzura ($4) who flew home for a dominant 1.7 length win with Tommy Berry aboard to hand trainer Chris Waller his eighth success in 11 years.
The 2026 Phar Lap Stakes winner was three-year-old Flying Artie colt Sixties at $1.55 odds-on favouritism for trainer Chris Waller who celebrated his ninth win in the event, his first with a colt, with jockey James McDonald aboard on 56.5kg from barrier 10 to win by 0.67 lengths on a Good (4) track in a time of 1:29.70.
