The most anticipated period of horse racing on the Australian calendar is spring, most notably the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival which draws copious amounts of attention from fans around the world, and a lot of avid punters. This is mainly due to the Melbourne Cup – Australia’s biggest horse racing event.
The W W Cockram Stakes is a Group Three horse race which takes place over 1, 400 metres in early August every year forming part of the illustrious Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival. Worth an impressive $100,000 in prizemoney, the Cockram Stakes is a race for mare’s four-years-old and above and takes place under set weight and penalty conditions. Held at the historically-rich Caulfield Racecourse in Melbourne’s south east, the Cockram Stakes takes place on the Liston Stakes Day which is highlighted by the Group Two Liston Stakes (1400m). A relatively young race, only finding its name on the list of Australian thoroughbred races in 1992, the Cockram Stakes was originally a Listed event, but found its Group Three status in 2005 which it has retained ever since.
Held so early in the spring, the Cockram Stakes is often host to classy mares jumping their spring campaign and is a crucial event for punters to keep an eye on if they want to keep on top of upcoming form. A good lead up race for the Group Three Lets Elope Stakes (1400m) in early September, those keen on wagering on the Cockram Stakes should sign up with an online bookie to really make the most of the odds and markets around. It has never been easier to bet on the Cockram Stakes with the advent of online punting, so wherever you are, even if you are overseas when the race is due to jump – do not fret, just head to an online bookmaker and make the most of the ease and convenience which online betting can offer.
