Freestone won the first edition of Coolmore Stud Stakes in 1863. Back then it was for two-year-olds, however, as of 1969, it’s been a three-year-old race. Some greats of the turf have been successful in the Group 1 over the years, including Manikato, Alinghi and Weekend Hussler.
Chris Waller managed to win the Coolmore Stud Stakes three straight times in the early-to-mid 2010s. In 2013 he trained Zoustar to victory and that success was followed by wins with Brazen Beau and Japonisme.
Exceedance clocked 1:09.76 to win the Coolmore Stud Stakes in 2019. However, Ferocity recorded the fastest time in the race over the last 20 years, running 1:08.35 in 2005.
