The Tristarc Stakes is a Group 2 event held on Caulfield Cup day annually at Caulfied racecourse in Melbourne. The race itself is open to 4-year-old mares at set weights and penalties conditions. It is held over a distance of 1400 metres and carries prize money of $175,000. Horses that compete in this race will usually go on to contest the Group 1 Myer Classic further on in the spring carnival.

It was first run in 1982 and was only upgraded to Group 2 status in 2006. Notable winners of the Tristarc Stakes include Infinate Grace (2003, 2005), Our Egyptian Raine (2004), Reactive (2002), Pernod (2001) and Bonanova (1999). It was won last year by Mimi Lebrock ahead of Tan Tat De Lago and Absolutelyfabulous.

The Rose Of Kingston Stakes has been the best form guide for this race throughout its short history, producing several winners. Cats Whisker took out this year Blazer Stakes ahead of Gold Water and Dane Julia.
