The Golden Rose Stakes is a Group 1 race for three year olds that is run on the fourth Saturday in September over 1400m at Rosehill Racecourse.
The race was formerly the Peter Pan Stakes and it was first run at Rosehill racecourse on Saturday September 2, 1978 over a distance of 1500m.
The inaugural running of the Peter Pan Stakes was won by the very good filly, Kapalaran.
From 1989 to 1991 The Peter Pan Stakes was run at Canterbury racecourse over a distance of 1550m before being returned to its original Rosehill 1500m format in 1992
In 2003 the race was renamed the Golden Rose Stakes and the distance was reduced to 1400m
In 2009 the race was upgraded from Group 2 status to Group 1.
Many outstanding three year olds have won the Peter Pan/Golden Rose Stakes: Kingston Town, Cossack Prince, Sir Dapper, Handy Proverb, Best Western and more recently, The Autumn Sun.
The most successful trainer of winners of the Peter Pan/Golden Rose is Tommy Smith with five winners:
1979 Kingston Town – 1980 Impish Prince – 1984 Black Ivory
1989 Party Mood – 1990 Imperial Magician
Riding honours rest with Hugh Bowman who also has five winners:
2003 In Top Swing – 2004 Doonan – 2008 Duporth – 2014 Hallowed Crown 2019 Bivouac.
