Doomben 10,000 info
Date: Saturday May 29th, 2010
Track: Doomben Racecourse, Brisbane
Distance: 1350 metres
Race Type: Weight-for-age
Status: Group 1
Prizemoney: $650,000
2009 Winner: Apache Cat

The Doomben 10,000 is the premier sprint event of the winter carnival at Doomben and always attracts a good class field. The race is typically taken out by a more than handy galloper and the weight-for-age conditions of the race lends itself to the better performed horses entered.

The Gr1 BTC Cup held two weeks earlier at the same has been a good guide in recent years with Apache Cat (2008) taking out the BTC Cup/Doomben 10,000 double in the same year, and in 2009 he finished second in the BTC Cup before scoring in this event for the second year in a row. Takeover Target finished second in the 2007 BTC Cup before winning this race.

The honour roll for this event sees many of Australia's best sprinters name etched upon it, with horses such as Apache Cat (2008-09), Takeover Target (2007), Bel Esprit (2003), Falvelon (2001-02) and Chief De Beers twice in 1995 & 1998, being winners of this race.

Many horses from this race will go on and tackle the major sprint race of the Brisbane winter carnival which is the Gr1 Stradbroke Handicap in a fortnight at Eagle Farm. Black Piranha (2nd in 2009) went on to win the Stradbroke next start after placing in this race.

Recent winners of the Doomben 10,000 include Apache Cat (2008-09) Takeover Target (2007) and Undue in 2006.
