The 2026 G1 WS Cox Plate will be held at Flemington while Moonee Valley undergoes renovation, according to a joint release by Racing Victoria and the Moonee Valley Racing Club on Wednesday.

“We believe that Flemington is the best location to maximise attendance, wagering and engagement with the meeting and we have confidence in the VRC's ability to present a high-quality track for Ladbrokes Cox Plate Day and the four-day Melbourne Cup Carnival that follows,” said RV CEO Aaron Morrison.

“We thank the MVRC for their work in exploring various options for the 2026 Ladbrokes Cox Plate in light of The Valley's redevelopment and for tabling an informative recommendation for our board to consider and ultimately endorse. We thank all clubs and commercial partners that were involved in submitting bids to the MVRC and congratulate the VRC and their partners on a successful bid.”

Moonee Valley is scheduled to re-open mid-2027 in time to host the 2027 Cox Plate.
