The LKS MacKinnon Stakes is a Victoria Racing Club Group 1 Thoroughbred horse race run under Weight for Age conditions over a distance of 2000 metres at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne, Australia on the first day of the VRC Spring Carnival on Victoria Derby day, the Saturday before the Melbourne Cup.[1] Total prize money is A$1,000,000 and $2,500 trophy.

Race history

Many horses who have a ranking high enough to avoid the ballot for the Melbourne Cup use the race as a lead in to the 3,200 metres race on the first Tuesday in November (otherwise they race in the longer Lexus Stakes).
The race is named after a former chairman of the VRC L.K.S. MacKinnon (18611935).[2]

1933 winner Rogilla Darby Munro up.
1907 winner Poseidon

Race name

In 1937 the VRC moved the Melbourne Stakes to earlier in the spring where was run in September over a shorter distance of 1 mile. The race was the predecessor to the Turnbull Stakes.
