The Goodwood

The Goodwood is a South Australian Jockey Club Group 1 Thoroughbred horse race for three years old and older, run at set weights with penalties, over a distance of 1200 metres at Morphettville Racecourse, Adelaide, South Australia in the SAJC Autumn Carnival.

History
In 2007 the race conditions were set weights and penalties after previously being a handicap race throughout its 121-year history and was renamed The Goodwood from Goodwood Handicap. The race was a principal race until 1980 when it was granted Group 1 status. In the years between 1881–1885 the distance was one mile. The race has always attracted high calibre sprinters, such as champions Black Caviar and Takeover Target. Two horses have won the race twice with Mostyn (1894–95) and Musket Belle (1911–12). Aurie's Star which won the race in 1940, had in previous seasons taken out the Oakleigh Plate twice and the VRC Newmarket Handicap. The race record time was set by Spectrum in 1998 in a time of 1:08.33.
