Ladbrokes Cox Plate Day

Ladbrokes Cox Plate Day at The Valley on Saturday 28 October 2023 featuring Australia’s Best Race

The Valley will be roaring on Ladbrokes Cox Plate Day. See the star weight-for-age horses clash in Australia’s Best Race, the Group 1 Ladbrokes Cox Plate. A strong local contingent headed by winning machine Mr Brightside, Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott’s tough on-pacer Alligator Blood, and Melbourne Cup victor Gold Trip, will face strong opposition from around the globe, including brilliant Hong Kong galloper Romantic Warrior, and Aidan O’Brien’s Victoria Road.

This year’s Ladbrokes Cox Plate Carnival ambassadors are Richmond’s two-time premiership star Tom Lynch, and fiancée Olivia Burke, bringing racing knowledge and spring fashion to The Valley.

As far as things to do in Melbourne goes, Ladbrokes Cox Plate Day is right at the top of the list. The intimate nature of The Valley creates a unique atmosphere, as the crowd roars with anticipation and excitement. It was Anamoe who wrote his name into history in the Centenary edition of the W.S Cox Plate. Who will be the next Ladbrokes Cox Plate champion?
