Group 1 Perth Cup history

The Perth Cup was first run back in 1976 when taken out by Marcus Rate on the old grass track at the former Cannington track. The dog picked up a $1300 winner’s cheque for taking out the feature, a sum which pales in comparison to the $140,000 on offer to the winner of the 2016 edition. Marcus Rate’s winning margin is still the second largest date, with the records showing a 10 length annihilation.

His winning margin benchmark was bettered 14 years later when Sand Pebble, the lesser known litter sister of champion Hall of Fame greyhound Sandi’s Me Mum, took out the 1990 Cup by a massive 10 and three quarter lengths over Quit.

Sand Pebble was also the first greyhound to win the race on loam since its upgrade from grass, the last grass winner being Miss Crisp. Although a fine sprinter in her own right, the brilliant bitch would go on to become an even better mum, producing one of the best sprinters the west has seen in Paradise Street which retired as a three time State Distance Championship winner and the 1998 National Distance Championship winner.

Since its inception, the Perth Cup has been won by some of the finest canine athletes the sport has seen such as Tenthill Doll (1996), Rapid Journey (1998), Betty’s Angel (2007), Size Can Matter (2008), High Earner (2010 & 2011), Keybow (2014) and My Bro Fabio (2015), the final winner over the testing 530m distance on the old track.

To this date, the only greyhound to have won dual Perth Cup titles is former star High Earner, which made the race his own in 2010 and 2011.

2016 marked the first running at the new Cannington track, which officially opened in March, with the feature event set to be run over the 520m trip. The new track are adjacent to the site of the old track, with the new complex worth a staggering $14 million.
