Atkins Winners<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Notable JJ Atkins winners throughout history include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Luskin Star (1977)<\/strong>: Luskin Star is one of the most iconic winners of the JJ Atkins, then known as the Marlboro Stakes. He completed the Australian two-year-old Triple Crown (<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/betting-info\/golden-slipper-stakes\/\">Golden Slipper<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/betting-info\/inglis-sires\/\">Sires\u2019 Produce<\/a><\/strong>, and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/betting-info\/champagne-stakes\/\">Champagne Stakes<\/a><\/strong>) and dominated the JJ Atkins with ease. His blistering speed and dominance as a juvenile made him a legend of the turf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mahogany (1993)<\/strong>: Mahogany was a versatile champion who won the JJ Atkins before going on to claim both the<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/betting-info\/victoria-derby\/\"> VRC Derby<\/a><\/strong> and the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/betting-info\/australian-derby\/\">Australian Derby<\/a><\/strong>. Known for his adaptability, he later excelled in sprint races, showcasing a rare combination of stamina and speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Freemason (1999)<\/strong>: Freemason, trained by John Hawkes, was a consistent performer who later won the Group 1 BMW Stakes. His JJ Atkins win was a sign of his staying prowess, which he demonstrated throughout his career in longer-distance races.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Show A Heart (2000)<\/strong>: Show A Heart\u2019s win in the JJ Atkins was the beginning of a stellar career. He went on to win multiple Group 1 races and became a successful sire, producing many top-level performers in Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Darci Brahma (2005)<\/strong>: A New Zealand-bred colt, Darci Brahma was a standout juvenile who won the JJ Atkins with authority. He later became a Group 1 winner in New Zealand and a leading sire, influencing Australasian bloodlines significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pressday (2010)<\/strong>: Trained by Chris Waller, Pressday was a dominant two-year-old who used the JJ Atkins as a springboard to further success. His win helped establish Waller\u2019s reputation for developing elite juveniles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sizzling (2012)<\/strong>: Sizzling was a Queensland favourite who completed the BRC Sires\u2019 Produce \u2013 JJ Atkins double. His consistency and strong finishes made him a crowd favourite, and he later stood at stud in Queensland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Autumn Sun (2018)<\/strong>: The Autumn Sun is arguably the most celebrated JJ Atkins winner of the modern era. After his win, he went on to claim five Group 1 victories, including the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/betting-info\/caulfield-guineas\/\">Caulfield Guineas <\/a><\/strong>and<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/betting-info\/randwick-guineas\/\"> Randwick Guineas<\/a><\/strong>. His explosive turn of foot and unbeaten record at three made him a superstar and a valuable stallion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rothfire (2020)<\/strong>: Rothfire, trained by Robert Heathcote, was a gritty and determined gelding who won the JJ Atkins in dominant fashion. His win was a feel-good story for Queensland racing, and he later competed at the highest level in Sydney and Melbourne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sheeza Belter (2022)<\/strong>: Sheeza Belter made history as the first filly since 2009 to win the JJ Atkins. Trained by Peter and Paul Snowden, she showed toughness and class, completing the BRC Sires\u2019 \u2013 JJ Atkins double and proving fillies could match it with the boys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>King Colorado (2023)<\/strong>: King Colorado was a surprise winner, storming home late to win at just his third start. Trained by Ciaron Maher and David Eustace, his raw talent and rapid rise made him one to watch for future Group 1 success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Broadsiding (2024)<\/strong>: Broadsiding, trained by James Cummings and ridden by James McDonald, was the dominant favourite and lived up to expectations. His JJ Atkins win was his second Group 1 victory, confirming his status as one of the best juveniles of his generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cool Archie (2025): <\/strong>Local Queenslander Cool Archie claimed a dominant victory in the 2025 Group 1 J.J. Atkins Stakes, surging from midfield under jockey Martin Harley to win by 1.75 lengths over Hidden Achievement, with Call Da Vinci third. Trained by the father-son duo Chris and Corey Munce, it marked their first Group 1 win together, with Chris having previously won the race as a jockey. The two-year-old colt by Cool Aza Beel (NZ) secured his fifth win from nine starts, boosting his earnings past $1.6 million after a stellar Queensland campaign that included wins in the Dalrello Stakes, Spirit of Boom Classic, and BRC Sires\u2019 Produce Stakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bet on the next JJ Atkins winner<\/strong>&nbsp;with our comprehensive JJ Atkins form guide and expert JJ Atkins tips at the TAB NZ!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Past J.J.
