History

The event was established in 1981, and was originally a Listed race called the Harroways Stakes. It was named after the Harroways, an area of the Goodwood Estate where the racecourse was founded. It was upgraded to Group 3 and given its present title in 1987. The race lost its Group 3 status when it was removed from the Pattern and Listed race programme in 2023.[1]

The Supreme Stakes was formerly held in late September or early October. It was brought forward to an earlier date in 2007.
