History

The event is scheduled on the third day of the MRC Spring Carnival (Caulfield Cup Day).

After the champion sprinter Schillaci won this race in 1994, the following year the race was renamed after the thoroughbred to the Schillaci Stakes. The race was run from 1995 to 1999 under the new name but the following year the Victoria Amateur Turf Club made a decision to rename the Chirnside Stakes to the Schillaci Stakes. This event was run as the Mercedes-Benz Sprint in 2000.
