The Goodwood is the premier sprint event of the Adelaide autumn racing carnival and always attracts a strong contingent of well above average gallopers. Up until 2007 the Goodwood was a handicap event before it was changed to a set weights & penalty race, which tends to favour the better performed horses engaged.

Races such as the Gr3 RN Irwin Stakes or Gr3 DC Mckay Stakes are good guides to this event and the Goodwood is a time honoured race in Adelaide. I Am Invincible (2nd in 2009) won the DC Mckay Stakes prior to finishing runner-up in this race.

Some more than handy gallopers have saluted in the Goodwood over the years and horses of the calibre of Takeover Target (2009), Super Elegant (2004), Bomber Bill (2003), Sword (1996), Euclase (1992) and Boardwalk Angel (1989) have all won this race.

Lone Rock (2011) ran third in a three-year-old fillies event over 1200m at Caulfield in Melbourne on her way to victory in this event and recent Goodwood winners have been Velocitea (2010) and Takeover Target (2009).
