The BTC Cup is one of the great Sprint races on the Brisbane racing calendar. A group 1 WFA race over 1200m, the BTC Cup has been won by many good horses over the years. Many horses use the BTC Cup as a launching pad, towards a Doomben 10,000 or Stradbroke Handicap assault. This year we see Black Caviar traveling North to contest what will be the most anticipated race in Brisbane for many years.
