The Goodwood is a Group 1 race held every year at Morphettville in Adelaide during the Autumn Racing Carnival as a follow-up from the Robert Sangster Stakes.
The Goodwood is a Group 1 race held at Morphettville Racecourse in Adelaide as part of the South Australia Jockey Club’s premier racing carnival. Taking place in May of each year, The Goodwood is a 1200m sprint run under set weights plus penalties and is currently worth just over $500,000 in total prize money, making it one of the more lucrative South Australian races.
For 2020 The Goodwood prize money was reduced to $400,000 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
As the leading sprint race at the Adelaide Autumn Racing Carnival, the event always attracts a highly competitive field of quality gallopers. Entries may come via a number of earlier races including the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m) for fillies & mares at the same track and distance a fortnight earlier.
In 2021 the Robert Sangster Stakes winning filly ran second in The Goodwood behind shock winner Savatoxl. The Robert Sangster Stakes form from 2023 was franked in The Goodwood with Another Award running second in both Group 1s and Zapateo placing third in both races.
The latest horses to complete the Robert Sangster Stakes – The Goodwood double were Black Caviar (2012) and Platelet (2013).
The Goodwood 2023 ran on Saturday May 20, 2023 at Morphettville Racecourse and was won in fighting fashion by the Ciaron Maher & David Eustace-trained filly Royal Merchant ($18).

Stay tuned for our insider The Goodwood 2023 Tips on the Adelaide sprint feature this May.
Going for value in this year’s The Goodwood field and have the mare Another Award on top at a nice double-figure price. The in-form and improving five-year-old daughter of Shamus Award represents ace local trainers Leon Macdonald & Andrew Gluyas and comes off a key lead-up. She has a lovely strike-rate at the track and distance (8:4-1-0). Last start she was under a length away second in the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m) here at 50/1. Right track, right trip and drops from 56.5kg that run to just 52.5kg. Gets the run of the race from barrier three after jumping wide last time out and will be flying with that weight. Upset hope.
The Goodwood race field attracts a smart line-up of sprinters, many coming out of lead-up sprint races held in Melbourne or Sydney during the autumn. Alternatively fillies and mares may have a lead-up into The Goodwood at the track and distance two weeks prior in the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m). In 2023 the same two mares, Another Award and Zapateo, ran second and third respectively in both the Robert Sangster and The Goodwood results.
Brisbane winter racing could also be on the agenda for sprinters in The Goodwood field.
The official The Goodwood 2023 field and barriers are set for release on the Tuesday of race week and will be announced below.
The 2023 The Goodwood final field features a quality line-up of sprinters led in betting by dual Group 1 second placed Snitzel colt Lofty Strike and Godolphin’s in-form Brazen Beau mare Zapateo coming off a third in the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes at the track.

D.O.D. was the inaugural Goodwood winner in 1881 when it was a principal race run over six furlongs. From 1886 to 1888 the race was not held but resumed the next year in 1889 under the same status and distance. In 1942 and 1943 the race did not take place again. The length was converted to 1200m in 1973 and the race’s status was lifted to Group 1 in 1980. Up until 2007 the race was run as a handicap event known as the Goodwood Handicap.
Notable recent The Goodwood winners include Trekking (2020), Black Heart Bart (2016) and super mare Black Caviar (2012).
In 2023 Royal Merchant became the first The Goodwood winning filly since Lone Rock (2011).
