Notable past Hobart Cup winners include that year\u2019s Melbourne Cup<\/a> champion Piping Lane (1972), Frontier Boy (1993), Palos Verdes (1997) who later produced Cox Plate winner<\/a> El Segundo, St. Andrews (2002), Blutigeroo (2007), Growl (2010), recent dual champion Geegees Blackflash (2012 & 2015), and Eastender (2019) who completed the Devonport Cup\/Hobart Cup\/ Launceston Cup treble.<\/p>\n

The 2022 Hobart Cup winner was Ho Ho Khan who carried the 59kg top-weight to a four-length victory for trainer Mitchell Freedman and apprentice hoop Tahlia Hope. He would continue on to run second in that year’s Launceston Cup results before a brave fourth at 40\/1 in Flemington’s Group 1 Australian Cup<\/a> (2000m).<\/p>\n

The 2023 Hobart Cup winner was the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained Sydney raider Military Mission<\/strong> ($4.40) who was dominant winning by 2.25 lengths off a gun ride by Ms Winona Costin.<\/p>\n

The Hobart Cup 2024 winner was the Symon Wilde-trained dual Launceston Cup champion Aurora’s Symphony ($8.50)<\/strong> who charged home by 2.75 lengths to set a new track record saluting in 2 minute 30.21 seconds.<\/p>\n

The 2025 Hobart Cup winner was the Ciaron Maher-trained Strawberry Rock ($6) <\/strong>who dug deep under pressure to beat home his stablemate Promises Kept by 0.2 lengths in a reverse of the Summer Cup quinella at the same track in the lead-up.<\/p>\n

The 2026 Hobart Cup winner was five-year-old Starcraft mare Blonde Star ($31) <\/strong>at a big starting price for trainer Imogen Miller with jockey Erica Byrne Burke aboard on 54kg from barrier 5 to win by 0.02 lengths on a Soft (5) track in a new record time of 2:29.67.<\/p>\n
