The Gold Coast Guineas is a Group 3 sprint held during May on AD Hollindale Stakes Day as a lead-up to the three-years-old races of the Brisbane Winter Racing Carnival and in 2023 took place at the Sunshine Coast.
The Gold Coast Guineas is a 1200m sprint held annually at the Gold Coast Racecourse* on AD Hollindale Stakes Day in early May.
*The 2023 Gold Coast Guineas and entire A.D. Hollindale Stakes Day card ran at the Sunshine Coast Racecourse.
With total prize money of $200,000 as of 2023, the Gold Coast Guineas attracts a strong line-up of three-year-olds that could be Brisbane-bound over the Winter Racing Carnival. The Gold Coast Guineas shares its race card with the Group 2 Hollindale Stakes (1800m) as well as the Group 3 Ken Russell Memorial Classic (1200m) for two-year-olds.
There was no 2020 A.D. Hollindale Stakes due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Gold Coast Guineas field attracts both local Queensland-trained gallopers as well as interstate visitors out of the Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival lead-up races. It is a good lead-up into the Group 3 Fred Best Classic (1400m) contested in Brisbane later in the month.
The 2023 Gold Coast Guineas ran on Saturday May 6, 2023 at the Sunshine Coast Racecourse and was won by returning Magic Millions 3YO Guineas runner-up Yellow Brick ($2.40F).

Stay tuned for our insider Gold Coast Guineas 2023 Tips on the A.D. Hollindale Stakes Day support act this May.
Wide-open edition of this year’s Gold Coast Guineas which will actually be run at the Sunshine Coast. A host of livewire chances, but going for the in-form Annabel Neasham-trained Overshare filly Lady Laguna who looks a nice price to make it two wins on the trot. Two back she was under a length off the smart Godolphin-raced Aft Cabin in Sydney’s Arrowfield 3YO Sprint. That looks a nice form race, and she in fact franked the form with a next-up Listed win in Brisbane. She has had nine goes at the distance without a win, but plenty of six-furlong placings and never runs a bad race. Good filly in a good gate.
The official Gold Coast Guineas 2023 Final Field & Barrier Draw are announced by Racing Queensland on the Wednesday before the race is run and won on AD Hollindale Stakes Day and will be provided below in full.
The 2023 Gold Coast Guineas final field features a smart line-up of promising three-year-olds led in betting including the returning Magic Millions 3YO Guineas winner Fashion Legend and runner-up in the same $2 million summer event back in January, Yellow Brick, also first-up.

The Gold Coast Guineas was established in 2000, and as such lacks the long illustrious history of many more renowned races. However, it only took until 2008 for the race to be elevated to Group 3 status as a result of increasing prize money and prestige. Today, the Gold Coast Guineas is one of the more highly anticipated races on the Gold Coast racing calendar.
The inaugural running of the race, in 2000, was in March and held over 1400m, as opposed to the current 1200m (2006 onwards). One of the most notable winners of the Gold Coast Guineas is Make Mine Magic, who made the race his sixth straight win, impressive considering the horse had only 6 races under his belt.
Gold Coast Guineas results since the race’s inauguration in 2000 are listed below.
A new track record was set in the 2018 Gold Coast Guineas results by the filly Champagne Cuddles who won in a speedy 1:07.65.
In 2023 the Gold Coast Guineas was moved from the Gold Coast Racecourse to the Sunshine Coast Racecourse.
