    Pericles ($5.50)<\/strong>\u00a0set himself up for a clash with the fellow Godolphin raced Tom Kitten in next month\u2019s Group 1 All-Star Mile (1600m) at Flemington after returning an impressive first-up winner in the\u00a02026 Futurity Stakes results<\/strong>\u00a0at Caulfield on Blue Diamond Day. In his first run since placing second to Ceolwulf in the spring\u2019s Champions Mile (1600m) at HQ, Pericles put the writing on the wall for a big autumn when given a perfectly timed ride by big race specialist Craig Williams to charge down the heavily backed favourite Treasurethe Moment and secure his first elite-level success at his 16th start.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \"Futurity<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Run over 1,400 metres in late February as part of Blue Diamond Stakes Day, the Futurity Stakes is a Group 1 race, traditionally held at Caulfield Racecourse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Offering a $750,000 prize purse as of 2023, the event is one of three elite level races at the Melbourne Autumn Racing Carnival meeting that is headlined by the two-year-olds running in the Group 1 $2 million Blue Diamond Stakes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Futurity Stakes is a weight-for-age event and previously served as a nice next-up option for horses out of the Group 1 CF Orr Stakes<\/a> held at the same track and distance a fortnight earlier before the Orr was moved to November in 2025. Black Heart Bart (2017) and Mr Brightside (2024) are the latest runners to complete the CF Orr – Futurity Stakes double<\/strong> in the same year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The best out of the Futurity Stakes may continue onto the now Group 1 The All-Star Mile<\/strong> <\/a>(1600m) held at various racetracks throughout Melbourne in March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Tom Kitten (2nd in 2025) was the last Futurity Stakes graduate to go and win the All-Star Mile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In 2023 the All-Star Mile was won by Mr Brightside who came off a second in the Futurity Stakes results and went on to win the Group 1 Doncaster Mile<\/a> (1600m) in Sydney as well that autumn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Mr Brightside won the 2024 Futurity Stakes on his way to second in that year’s All-Star Mile quinella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Mr Brightside returned to defend his title in the Futurity Stakes 2025 going back-too-back for the first time since Niconero (2008-09).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
