The Gimcrack Stakes is quite often the first race start for many a two-year-old filliy in the new racing season and it has provided some stars of the turf over the years.
Recent good 2yo trial form, horses in strong 2yo stables, and well bred types will be the ones to watch in this event. The Listed Breeders Plate is the equivalent race for 2yo colts and geldings and run on the same day at Randwick.
