THE MITTYS MCEWEN STAKES IS A GROUP 2 WEIGHT FOR AGE RACE OVER 1200 METRES FOR HORSES THREE YEARS AND OLDER. The McEwen Stakes pays tribute to the late Ian McEwen, who served as Chief Executive of the Moonee Valley Racing Club from 1970 to 1991, with the Club experiencing remarkable growth under Ian’s visionary leadership. Collaborating with Chairman Bill Stutt in the 1970s, they elevated the W.S. Cox Plate to become the premier weight-for-age championship in Australasia. This year marks 19 years of our valued partnership with dedicated race sponsor Mittys. We thank Mittys for their steadfast support of the Moonee Valley Racing Club, helping to uphold the tradition and spirit of the McEwen Stakes. Today’s Mittys McEwen Stakes is also a ‘Win And You’re In’ race for Moonee Valley Racing Club’s slot in The Meteorite held at Cranbourne on 23 November 2024. MCEWEN STAKES
