This event is run over 1600 metres, and is a stepping stone event for some horses on their way up to mile distance.  Being held on the first day of the Melbourne carnival, the Carbine Club Stakes shares the bill with a number of major Group 1 races, including the AAMI Victoria Derby, the Group 1 Myer Classic, the Coolmore Stud Stakes, and the Mackinnon Stakes.

The Carbine Club Stakes has a history that stretches back to 1983, making it one of the newer events in the Melbourne carnival.  Wage Freeze won the first Carbine Club Stakes in 1983 when it was still a Listed event, with Toy Carousel experiencing the first Group 3 win in 1998.  Some of the more well known horses to have also won this event include Saintly in 1995, Delago Brom in 2002, and Al Maher in 2004.
