    \"2022
    Inaugural Five Diamonds Prelude winner Ellsberg saluted for the punters in 2022. Photo: Steve Hart.<\/figcaption><\/figure>The Five Diamonds Prelude is a $1 million event run at Royal Randwick in mid to late October.<\/p>\n

    The event took place for the first time during the 2022 Sydney Spring Racing Carnival on The Everest Day and is open only to horses aged five-years-old.<\/p>\n

    In 2023 it moved to its own feature race meeting and takes place on the same date as Melbourne’s Caulfield Cup Day<\/a> card.<\/p>\n

    In 2024 the Five Diamonds Prelude joined the Spring Champion Stakes Day line-up on the same date as Melbourne’s Cox Palte Day<\/a> program and gained Listed status.<\/p>\n

    It is the key lead-up into the $2 million The Five Diamonds (1800m), which also ran for the first time in 2022 on the Saturday after the Melbourne Cup<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    The Five Diamonds Prelude takes place at set weights plus penalties over 1500m and offers the winner a ballot exemption into the Five Diamonds race field<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    The inaugural Five Diamonds Prelude winner was the $2.80 favourite Ellsberg coming off a dead-heat win in the Group 1 Epsom Handicap (1600m).<\/p>\n

    Ellsberg went on to become the first horse to complete the Five Diamonds Prelude – Five Diamonds double<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    In 2023 Detonator Jack ran second in the Prelude, third in the Five Diamonds result and won the $1 million The Gong<\/a> at Kembla Grange.<\/p>\n
