The Craven Plate is the last weight-for-age race of the spring carnival in Sydney and the race suits horses who are not contesting the Gr1 Epsom Hcp or the Gr1 The Metropolitan on the same day.

Some nice staying types have won this race in recent years including Mummify (2005), Yippio (2000 & 1997), Tie the Knot (1999) and Sharscay (1998).

Horses contesting this race may have previously tackled races like the Gr2 Hill Stakes at Rosehill in September or the Gr1 George Main Stakes one week earlier at Randwick.

Mourayan (2012) finished runner-up in the Hill Stakes prior to scoring in this event and recent Craven Plate winners include My Kingdom Of Fife (2011) and C'est le Guerre (2010).
