Via Sistina features in the Cox Plate futures market and the Chris Waller-trained import could use the Might And Power Stakes as a final lead-up, with this Group 1 being contested two weeks before the Moonee Valley feature.

The daughter of Fastnet Rock took out the Group 1 Ranvet Stakes on Australian debut and she was then spelled after a runner-up finish behind a dominant Pride Of Jenni in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes.

At $6 with BlueBet, Via Sistina shares favourtism with Mr Brightside in the 2024 Might And Power Stakes market.

A seven-year-old who has won almost $13.5 million in prize money to date, Mr Brightside is expected to resume in the Memsie Stakes at Caulfield on August 31.

Fawkner Park ($8) rounds out the single figure chances, although the son of Zoffany is also included in both the Caulfield Cup and Cox Plate futures, with this 2000m feature perhaps being the lead-up option should he go down a Cox Plate path.

Might And Power Stakes History


It might not be the most important race on its own, but this 2000m WFA event often helps shape Melbourne spring majors.

Past winners of the Might And Power reads like a who’s who of Australian racing with Winx, So You Think, Lonhro, Northerly, Might And Power, Rough Habit, Naturalism, Bonecrusher and Kingston Town all taking out the event.

It’s one of the best form guides for future racing with horses going on from this race to typically compete in both the Cox Plate and Caulfield Cup. 

First run and won in 1886 by Isonomy, the race is now a highly coveted event, with this Group 1 previously known as Yalumba Stakes from 1997-2010, with the race now known as the Might And Power, but still registered as the Caulfield Stakes.

Probabeel (2021), Anamoe (2022) and Alligator Blood (2023) have won the last three editions of the Might And Power Stakes.
