Betting on the Doomben 10,000

Over the last 13 years, only five favourites have won – Mazu, Eduardo, Sea Siren, Apache Cat (x2), and two equal favourites also won with Spirit Of Boom and Hot Danish.

The race is typically suited towards the well-supported runners, but there has been the odd upset. 11 winners from the last 35 years have won paying double figures which included 2019 winner The Bostonian which paid $41 who ultimately was is the biggest priced winner the race has seen.

The Doomben 10,000 is a race suited for colts and geldings. Only English (2018), Sea Siren (2012), Beaded (2011), and Hot Danish (2010) broke a streak of 15 consecutive colt or gelding winners since 2000 so look towards backing the boys in Brisbane.

The barrier draw statistics make for interesting reading. Typically group one races don’t have a big barrier bias, but the Doomben 10,000 favours drawing the inside barrier.

Barrier 1 has won the race six times in the last 31 years and barrier 1-5 have won 20 of the last 32. If you draw 11, 13, 15 or 16, good luck as no horse has ever won drawing those barriers.

Recent Doomben 10,000 runnings

• 2022: Mazu gets his Group 1 success
  Having been one of the shining lights throughout The Championships in Sydney, the Peter & Paul Snowden-trained Mazu dug deep to claim the Doomben 10,000. Having looked like a shot duck on the home turn, Sam Clipperton managed to have the three-year-old move through the gears in the home straight and despite tiring late, the colt managed to hold off the fast finishing Paulele and Entriviere in a blanket finish. The win handed Clipperton his first Group 1 win in six years and gave the Snowden’s a second win in the race since 2017.
• 2021: Eduardo's fighting spirit gets him over the line
  Eduardo the $1.60 favourite looked to be all but lost as he was leading the pack and seemed to be getting gassed on the last 100m, however with the fighting spirit from the seven-year-old gelding he was able to find the extra grunt to keep the lead and win by .3 of a length to $31 Wild Planet.
• 2020: Cancelled due to COVID-19
  2020 running of the Doomben 10,000 was cancelled due to COVID-19 and the lockdowns in Australia.
• 2019: The Bostonian Creates History In The Doomben 10,000
  An inch perfect steer from Michael Cahill aboard The Bostonian saw the Tony Pike-trained gelding created history as the biggest priced winner of the Doomben 10,000 when paying $41. The Bostonian had been urged along the rails over the final furlong before needing to hold out the fast finishing Osborne Bulls. The Tony Pike-trained runner had not been seen in Australia since his win in the Sunshine Coast Guineas in June 2018 after heading back to New Zealand in an attempt for more Group 1 success.
• 2018: English gives Gai her first 10,000 crown
  All eyes were on Redzel heading into his Doomben 10,000 defence but it was Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott-trained English which stole the show. Redzel lead the field heading to the 400m mark but English and Le Romain forged past the Everest winner to fight it out. It was English who came away as the winner, with the fast-finishing Impending just edging out Le Romain for the runners-up cheque.
• 2017: Redzel wins the 10,000 from the front
  Redzel held on gamely after leading throughout to win the 2017 Doomben 10,000. It looked to be wilting in the straight, but jockey Jim Byrne got the best out of it late to hold off the fast-finishing Counterattack. Read the report here.
• 2016: Baker's Music Magnate makes some serious noise
  It was a Bjorn Baker special this year, with Music Magnate winning in a scorching time, the third fastest in modern history. Ridden by Kerrin McEvoy, Music Magnate was able to settle in a great position before showing great spirit to hold off Azkadellia, Charlie Boy and Delection. Read a full report.
• 2015: Boban racks up yet another G1 crown
  Boban added another group one to its tally in 2015 with the Doomben 10,000. The Chris Waller-trained gelding scored a very narrow win over Charlie Boy and Generalife in one of the closest finishes in history. The big story from this race was the beaten brigade and how good they have been since. Boban defeated Sacred Star, Srikandi, Temple Of Boom, Big Money and Scissor Kick – all good horses in their own right.
• 2014: Spirited win from Tony Gollan's Boom elect
  The boom was heard all around Doomben as Tony Gollan the group one quinella with, Spirit Of Boom beating home Temple Of Boom. Many punters were riding home stablemate Temple Of Boom with Tegan Harrison in the saddle and it looked home in the straight, but Spirit Of Boom showed its true class and finished over the top of them late. The win was memorable for Gollan and it came with one of his stable stars. Spirit Of Boom defeated Queensland-favourite Buffering, Rebel Dane and Hot Snitzel, so take nothing away from this win.
• 2013: Epaulette wins in stunning fashion
  The Peter Snowden-trained Epaulette produced one of the best finishes in Doomben 10,000 history. The then three-year-old settled well throughout the run and when it hit the 200m mark it went whoosh. It never showed the same form again following this win, but once again, the beaten brigade is what makes winning the Doomben 10,000 so prestigious. Epaulette defeated Buffering, Sea Siren, Spirit Of Boom and Rain Affair. Punters were happy with the win as it got backed late, all the way into $6.
• 2012: Sea Siren sings the Victory song
  Sea Siren gave John O’Shea his group one when the then three-year-old filly proved too good for Buffering which once again finished in behind the winner. Sea Siren had a great season and winning the Group 1 Doomben 10,000 was one of the highlights. The daughter of Fastnet Rock carried only 55kg to victory whilst the likes of Buffering and Temple Of Boom carried 59kg. This race suits runners at the light weights so punters should look for that.
• 2011: Beaded beats out small 10,000 field
  Beaded took advantage of the small field of only seven runners. Love Conquers All (2nd) was the $3 favourite, but Beaded just fell in to hold it off. Buffering was once again beaten, finishing last in seventh position. Other notable runners were All Silent which later succeeded at Royal Ascot and the well-performed Black Piranha.
