The Winter Stakes is a good quality race for fillies & mares only and is the final Group 1 race of the Brisbane winter racing carnival. The weight-for-age conditions of the race provides a distinct advantage to the better performed females contesting the event and more often than not the best filly or mare will greet the judge.

Some classy mares have won the Winter Stakes over the years, including the likes of Melito (2010), Dane Ripper (1997), Tripping (1996) and Mamzelle Pedrille (1995).

Females who contested the Gr3 Lady Of The Turf Stakes at Doomben earlier in the carnival or the Gr3 Dane Ripper Quality at the same track are most likely to go on and tackle the Winter Stakes as they are both run under similar conditions for fillies & mares only.

Yosei (2011) finished well down the track in the Dane Ripper Stakes before getting to the line in solid fashion to win this event and recent Winter Stakes winners have been Melito (2010) and Russeting (2009).
