The Reisling Slipper Trial is a fillies only event for two-year-olds that is used as a lead up race to the Gr1 Golden Slipper Stakes in a fortnight at the same track. The race is run over the same course & distance as the premier 2yo classic and is held on the same day as the Gr1 Coolmore Stud Classic and Gr1 Ranvet Stakes.

Being run at level weights it will suit the better quality gallopers entered and the race will usually attract 2yo fillies on their way to the Slipper. Polar Success (2003) was the last filly to take out the Reisling Slipper Trial & Golden Slipper Stakes double.

The winning filly of this race has the luxury of being exempt from the Golden Slipper ballot, which ensures a run is guaranteed in the $3.5 million premier race for two-year-olds during the Sydney autumn carnival.

Fillies may come to this race via the Gr2 Sweet Embrace Stakes at Randwick and also have the option of tackling the upcoming Gr2 Magic Night Stakes at Rosehill before going on to the Golden Slipper.

Elite Falls (2011) ran second in the Gr2 Silver Slipper Stakes on her way to winning this race and recent Reisling Slipper Trial winners include Military Rose (2010) and More Joyous (2009) and Hips Don't Lie (2008).
