Race history
The registered race is named after Northwood Plume, who won the 1994 The Thousand Guineas–VRC Oaks double and was named Champion three-year-old filly that season. The race is held on the first day of the MRC Spring Carnival.
Since 2010, if the winner of the event has previously won one of the two heats (W W Cockram Stakes or How Now Stakes), then the connections will win a $50,000 bonus from William Hill.
