How to bet on the Australian Derby with Bet Right

The Australian Derby is one of the most prestigious staying races for three-year-olds in Australia. Held annually at Royal Randwick Racecourse in early April, this Group 1 event is a true test of endurance, covering 2400 metres. As a highlight of The Championships, the Australian Derby attracts top-tier stayers vying for a share of the $2 million prize pool, with the winner taking home over $1 million.

First run in 1861, the Australian Derby has a rich history and has produced some of Australia’s finest middle-distance and staying champions. Many past winners have gone on to achieve success in other major races such as the Caulfield Cup and Melbourne Cup, solidifying the Derby’s status as a key stepping stone for future stars of the turf.

The Australian Derby is not just about the race itself; it forms part of Sydney’s illustrious Autumn Racing Carnival, where punters and racing enthusiasts gather to witness top-class competition on one of Australia’s biggest racing stages.
