The Gordon Stakes is a
Group 3
flat
horse race in Great Britain open to three-year-old horses. It is run at
Goodwood over a distance of 1 mile 3
furlongs and 218 yards (2,412 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in late July or early August.
History
The event is named after the
Duke of Gordon , one of the dukedoms held by the
Duke of Richmond , the owner of Goodwood Racecourse. It was established in 1902, and it was restricted to three-year-olds in 1903.
The Gordon Stakes can serve as a trial for the
St. Leger Stakes , and nine horses have won both races. The first was
Prince Palatine in 1911, and the latest was
Conduit in 2008.
During the 1890s there was a 1 mile 2 furlong race open to three-year-olds and older called the Gordon Stakes that was run in late July or early August.
[1]
The race is currently held on the third day of the five-day Glorious Goodwood meeting.
