The Herbert Power Stakes is a Group 2 open handicap race for horses three years old and over.  Held over a distance of 2400 metres, this event is a good preparation race for the prestigious Caulfield Cup and Melbourne Cup.  The Herbert Power Stakes is held each year at Caulfield Racecourse in Melbourne, and has been run since 1898.

The Herbert Power Stakes has been through a number of changes over the years, in terms of classification, name, and distance.  It was originally a Principal race until 1979, when it was upgraded at first to a Group 3 event.  It was only two years later that the Herbert Power Stakes graduated to a Group 2 race however, a classification is has retained ever since.

Known as the VATC Herbert Power Handicap between 1920 and 1993, the Herbert Power Stakes has also been known as the VATC Quick-Eze Stakes, the VATC Perrier Mineral Water Stakes, the MRC Winning Edge Presentations Stakes, and the MRC Sportingbet Handicap.

Some of the high profile multiple winners of this race include Wakeful in 1902-03, Poseidon in 1906-07, Alawa in 1908-09, Anna Carlovna in 1913-14, Easingwold in 1923-24, Royal Charter in 1925 annd 1927, and Dashing Beau in 1949-50.

The 2011 edition of the Herbert Power Stakes was won by Shewan, who ran down Tanby on the line, with Moyenne Corniche in third position.
