Australia has won the Trophy at both the events that it it has been contested, Oparau, NZ and Hervey, West Australia. A different result is expected in 2003.

The venue for the KTM A4DE 2003 event is Mt Burr Forest, Millicent. A 30000 hectare pine forest which has a soil content of mainly loamy sand with some clay and very few areas of rock. The terrain is undulating without any large hills. The forest areas have had no previous events run in them so they are not expected to be whooped out.
