The eight-time Group 1 winner has an excellent record at Caulfield, with five wins and three placings from nine starts at this circuit, and all five Caulfield triumphs have come over seven furlongs.

At $2.40 with Ladbrokes, Mt Brightside is favourite to win the 2025 CF Orr Stakes.

Another Wil ($6.50) is on the second line betting and he's another galloper with a strong Caulfield record (three wins and a second from five starts).

The Ciaron Maher-trained gelding did fail via his two Group 1 attempts before rounding his 2024 spring with a runner-up finish in the Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes over this track/trip.

This will be the first Group 1 attempt from Schwarz ($7) and the four-year-old impressed on return when recording a two-length victory in the Australia Stakes.

CF Orr Stakes Winners


The C.F. Orr Stakes is the first Group 1 of the calendar in Australia, a 1400m weight-for-age event run over 1400m at Caulfield.

It was traditonally a race for stayers to kick off their autumn campaigns, with past winners such at Talaq, Let's Elope, Jeune and Saintly included on the honour roll, however, more recent editions have mainly been dominated by sprinter/milers.

The C.F. Orr Stakes gained Group 1 status in 1993, although many famous winners precede that announcement, with Flight, Tobin Bronze, Manikato and Vo Rogue among the champions to have won this 1400m feature.

Tofane (2022), Jacquinot (2023) and Mr Brightside (2024) have won the last three editions of the C.F. Orr Stakes.
