The Toy Show Quality is run under quality handicap conditions for fillies & mares only and can often provide a nightmare scenario for punters trying to decipher the form.
The better class gallopers have to give weight to up & coming types, who may have escaped the full brunt of the handicapper, and get in well under the weighted conditions of the race.
This race can lead to future group winners, such as smart Zoustar filly Mizzy (2019), who went on to capture the Gr2 Sheraco Stakes and Gr2 Research Stakes after winning this event.
In recent times, Dystopia (2012) ran third in the Gr2 Theo Marks Stakes on Golden Rose day at Rosehill, while Crafty Irna (2nd in 2012) finished runner-up in the Gr3 Kingston Town Stakes at the same meeting. Classy Chris Waller trained mare Amicus (2015) travelled to Melbourne at her next start to claim the Gr2 Let's Elope Stakes at Flemington.
Mizzy (2019) resumed from an autumn spell to score a comfortable victory in this event for the Anthony Cummings stable at Randwick.
Recent Toy Show Quality winners include Egyptian Symbol (2018) and Sweet Redemption (2017).
