The All Aged Stakes 2013 is one of the last races during the Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival run at Royal Randwick in late April.
Held on Sydney Cup Day, the Group 1 All Aged Stakes is a weight-for-age race for horses aged 3 years old and over. The race attracts a lot of good middle distance sprinters eager to combat the 1400m track in hope of winning a share of the $400,000 prize money. Many horses will come from the Group 1 TJ Smith Stakes (1200m) one week earlier to try and overcome the extra 200m added to this race.
The 2013 All Aged Stakes will be run on Saturday 27 April 2013.

All Aged Stakes History
First raced in 1866, the All Aged Stakes was won by Falcon over a distance of 1600m. This track length remained the same until 2004 when it was changed to its current length of 1400m.
The All Aged Stakes has been won by plenty of top quality horses starting with Carbine and his consecutive wins in 1889 and 1890. Another 48 years later, Ajax broke this record by winning the All Aged Stakes three years in a row in 1938 – 1940.
Two time Melbourne Cup winner Peter Pan took out the race in 1935 and the legendary Tulloch also won the race in 1958. The New Zealand horse Rough Habit won the All Aged Stakes in 1992 and 1993, however his greatest victories took place at the Brisbane Winter Racing Carnival.
