History
editIn 1995 the race was held at Caulfield Racecourse. Prior to 2005 the race was run in September when it was known as the C S Hayes Stakes, named after the champion trainer Colin S. Hayes (1924–1999).
The registered race is named after the champion Australian Horse of the Year in 1984–85, Red Anchor, who won the W. S. Cox Plate–Victoria Derby in that year.[2]
