The McEwen Trophy is a Group 3 race run over a distance of 1000 metres and takes place at Moonee Valley racecourse each year during the Melbourne spring racing carnival. The race itself is run under standard weight-for-age conditions and
is worth over $200,000 in prizemoney.
The McEwen Trophy is a good race for sprinters who have a penchant for the Moonee Valley track and suited by the weight-for-age conditions of the race. Look for horses who have the score on the board at Moonee Valley, especially multiple times at WFA over the same distance.
The brilliant Miss Andretti won this race in 2006 before going on to salute in a number of quality group races and the 2009 McEwen Trophy winner was Nicconi.
