Mara was the inaugural Sandown Classic winner back in 1888.<\/p>\n

Internationally-trained Zipping Classic winners in recent years include Beautiful Romance (2016), Au Revoir (2014) and Americain (2011) who had won the previous year’s Melbourne Cup<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The race’s now namesake, Zipping, is one of the most famous Sandown Classic winners in history taking out four straight editions of the event from 2007-2010.<\/p>\n

Sound (2020-21) was the last back-to-back Zipping Classic winner.<\/p>\n

The 2022 Zipping Classic winner Vow And Declare<\/strong> ($5) enjoyed his first victory since winning the 2019 Melbourne Cup.<\/p>\n

The 2023 Zipping Classic winner was the in-form Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained grey Military Mission<\/strong> ($13) who improved on a Melbourne Cup 10th to come from right back before charging home for a 2.75 length win in the Group 2 at Caulfield.<\/p>\n

The 2024 Zipping Classic winner was the Bjorn Baker-trained favourite Arapaho ($4.40)\u00a0<\/strong>who franked the Champions Stakes form backing up from his fifth in that behind Via Sistina to salute for the punters and break a notable winning drought thanks to a gun ride by jockey Rachel King.<\/p>\n

The 2025 Zipping Classic winner five-year-old Ace High mare She\u2019s A Hustler ($3.10)<\/strong> for trainer Grahame Begg with jockey Jordan Childs aboard on 57kg from barrier 3 to salute by 0.35 lengths on a Soft (6) track in a time of 2:31.19.<\/p>\n
