Fred Darling Stakes

Fred Darling Stakes

The Fred Darling Stakes is a Group 3 flat horse race in the United Kingdom for three-year-old thoroughbred fillies. It is run over a straight distance of 7 furlongs (1,408 metres) at Newbury Racecourse in mid April.

The race is one of the main trials for the 1,000 Guineas run at the beginning of May. It was first run in 1949 and is named after Fred Darling, an English racehorse trainer who trained a joint-record seven English Derby winners. Four winners of the race since 1988 have gone on to win the 1,000 Guineas – Salsabil, Shadayid, Bosra Sham and Wince. Two more Guineas winners, Sleepytime and Lahan, both finished fourth in the Fred Darling Stakes.

Prior to 1999 the race was run over the slightly longer distance of 7 furlongs 64 yards (1,467 metres), which included one left-hand bend. Since 1996 the race has been run under the sponsored title of the Dubai Duty Free Stakes.

Winners since 1986
