  • win an internationally recognised Listed flat race run over 2300 metres or further
  • win the Cesarewitch Handicap (UK, 8th October).
It turns out that the site I got this information from had a truncated list. The other means to pass the first ballot clause are:
  • place 6th, 7th or 8th in the 2016 MRC Caulfield Cup
  • place 2nd or 3rd in the 2016 MVRC Cox Plate
  • win the 2016 VRC Turnbull Stakes
  • won or was placed 2nd or 3rd in the 2014 Emirates Melbourne Cup
  • won the 2014 Caulfield Cup
Finishing 6th-8th in the 2016 Caulfield Cup were: Our Ivanhowe (already passed ballot), Sir Isaac Newtown (not nominated) and Vengue Masque (now passes ballot clause)

Cox Plate is this coming Saturday. Acceptances are on Wednesday morning, but presently nominated and still hoping to pass the first ballot clause is: Tosen Stardom.

The winner of the 2016 Turnbull Stakes was Hartnell (already passed).

The first three placegetters in the 2014 Melbourne Cup were Protectionist (no longer nominated), Red Cadeaux (RIP) and Who Shot Thebarman (already passed).

The 2014 Caulfield Cup winner was Admire Rakti (RIP).
