San Domenico Stakes Winners & History (Photo: Steve Hart). Neds.com.au

The San Domenico Stakes is a Group 3 sprint contested over 1100m for three-year-olds held at Rosehill Gardens Racecourse at the end of August as a key early Sydney Spring Racing Carnival lead-up.

Offering $250,000 in prize money as of 2023, the race is run at set weights plus penalties and serves as a nice campaign kick-off for youngsters heading towards a potential run in Melbourne’s Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes (1200m) down the Flemington straight over the Cup Carnival in November. Exceedance (2019) was the last three-year-old to do the San Domenico Stakes – Coolmore Stud Stakes double.

Often three-year-olds out of the San Domenico Stakes field go through the grades and rise in distance for a shot at the Group 1 Golden Rose Stakes (1400m), with Bivouac (2nd in 2019) the last San Domenico graduate to go on and win the Golden Rose. In The Congo (2021) was the last three-year-old to take out the San Domenico Stakes – Golden Rose Stakes double.

The quality of the San Domenico Stakes winners in recent years has been top class and include the aforementioned Exceedance (2019) along with Star Turn (2017), Japonisme (2016) and Foxwedge (2012).

Which Horse Will Win The SAN DOMENICO STAKES in 2024

The best way to pick which horse will win the San Domenico Stakes in 2024 is to take into account their lead-up spring racing form, assess the barriers, and consider the weights each horse will carry. 

Additional factors to consider when picking the San Domenico Stakes winner include:

  • First-Up Factor – Many runners are first-up in the field so looking for proven fresh performers is key. Libertad (2023) was the last first-up San Domenico Stakes winner. 
  • Class Prevails – The shorter-priced 3YOs have a top recent record in the race so keep an eye on the single-figure fancies.
  • Star Juveniles – Any horses that had strong 2YO campaigns the season prior in events like the Blue Diamond or Golden Slipper make a great bet as 3YOs in the San Domenico Stakes field.
