Tristarc Stakes

The Tristarc Stakes is a Group 2 race run under Set Weights and Penalty conditions for four year old and up mares at Caulfield conducted by the Melbourne Racing Club.

The Tristarc Stakes is run over 1400m. It was first run in 1982 and was won by Walk With Me.

Vast majority of runnings have been at 1400m.

The Tristarc Stakes had been a Listed race until 1993, then a Group 3 from 1994 to 2004 before going to Group 2 from 2005.
