- Australian Champion Racehorse of the Year
The Australian Champion Racehorse of the Year is awarded to the thoroughbred horse who is voted to be the champion horse within an Australian racing season. This award is open to all racehorses racing within Australia, regardless of age and sex. Overseas performances are now included.
