Richmond Stakes

The Richmond Stakes is a Group 2 thoroughbred race run annually at the Glorious Goodwood Festival. Entry to the race is restricted to 2 year old colts, which race over a distance of 7 furlongs at Goodwood Racecourse.

The Richmond Stakes dates back to 1877 when the first race was held to honour the Duke of Richmond, who introduced racing to Goodwood. At the turn of the 19th century the Richmond Stakes had become one of the finest races in the United Kingdom, producing several Epsom Derby winners.
