Trainer :    J B  Cummings       Jockey:   Wayne Harris (a)

Wayne Harris became the first apprentice to win the Golden Slipper when he brought Century Miss with a withering run to win in a photo finish.  It gave Bart Cummings his fourth win the race in a decade when he and T J Smith had shared training honours.  Century Miss broke her jaw in a barrier mishap shortly afterwards and was immediately retired to stud.
