History Edit

The A J Moir Stakes was named after former Chairman of the Moonee Valley Racing Club (1960–75), long standing committeeman and prominent Melbourne solicitor Alan John Moir KCMG (1903–81) of the Melbourne establishment firm Gillott, Moir and Winneke - now MinterEllison.[2] As a prominent lawyer and company Director he held various other positions including; President of the Victorian Law Institute (1939–40), Director and Chairman of GTV 9 and Director of David Syme and Co Limited (the Age)[2] where he played an important role in the formation of Syme as a public company in 1948.[2] He received a CMG (Companion title Order of Saint Michael and Saint George) title in 1971 for his services to the racing industry.

Alan John Moir was also a great-grandson of former Victorian Premier, Sir Graham Berry and relative to Henry Albert Underwood, of the Underwood racing family.

The AJ Moir Stakes was first run in 1976 and won by Scamanda.[1]

Elevated to Group 2 status in 1979, it has been won by many star sprinters, most notably Manikato, who became the second horse to pass $1 million in earnings when he won in 1982. Other top-line winners include the Judge (1978–79) and his sister Victoria Peak (1980), Special (1986), Placid Ark (1987), Spartacus (1996), Falvelon (2000), Spinning Hill (2002) and more recently Miss Andretti, Apache Cat and Black Caviar.[1]

For the 2013 running of the event the race was upgraded to Group 1 status and moved from the traditional Cox Plate Day card to be run under lights on Friday night before the AFL Grand Final.
