History

The race is a major preparatory race for the Group 1 Doncaster Handicap and Sydney Cup as the winner is exempt from ballot for entry into each race.[1]

The race is named after the suburb Chipping Norton located in Liverpool located 27 kilometres south-west of Sydney. The race is usually held together with the Liverpool City Cup as part of the City of Liverpool festivities.[2]

Some outstanding champions have won this race including Phar Lap, Tranquil Star, Bernborough and Tulloch and Super Impose.

Tie the Knot won the race four consecutive times,[1] a feat matched by Winx in March 2019.
