       Rosehill Guineas (GR1)

                                  2024 total prize money: $750,000 
                      1st $430,000, 2nd $141,000, 3rd $71,500


The Rosehill Guineas was first run over 7 furlongs during the spring of 1910 and was won Mr J. F. Wynne’s, Electric Wire.
In 1915, in order to make the race more of a ‘staying test’, the distance was increased to 9 furlongs, this now gave owners a more accurate platform for assessing their horses’ chances in the AJC Derby (1 ½ miles) in a fortnights time.
This distance remained until 1948 when it was increased to 1 ¼ miles.

It was the Rosehill Guineas that first highlighted the potential of many of our greatest gallopers, gallopers who went on to become champions and in some cases, legends, of the Australian turf.
Great horses like Phar Lap, Ajax, Hydrogen, Tulloch, Dulcify, Kingston Town, Strawberry Road & Octagonal, to name a few, all launched their stellar careers through the Rosehill Guineas.

The most successful trainer of winners of the Rosehill Guineas is the great 
T. J. Smith who has saddled up the winner on nine occasions:
1952 Idlewild – 1957 Tulloch – 1958 Bold Pilot – 1966 Dark Briar 
1969 Portable – 1970 Royal Show – 1973 Imagele – 1980 Kingston Town
1984 Alibhai

1954 Pride Of Egypt

E. Bartle: 1932 Bronze Hawk – 1939 High Caste – 1940 Tidal Wave
