Run over 1,300 metres, the Up And Coming Stakes is a Group 3 race taking place at Rosehill Gardens in August during the Spring Racing Carnival. With a $250,000 prize purse as of 2023, it attracts a quality line-up of three-year-old colts and geldings that may be targeting upcoming Group 1 events later in the season.
The 2021 Up And Coming Stakes took place at Kembla Grange Racecourse due to COVID before being moved from its traditional home at Randwick to Rosehill ahead of the 2022 event.
The Up & Coming Stakes has alternated between Group 2 and 3 status in recent years and has been won by many champion racehorses including Mahogany (1993), Exceed And Excel (2003) and Fastnet Rock (2004).
The event was previously held on Winx Stakes Day, but in 2020 moved forward a week earlier to occupy its own feature race meeting on the same day as Caulfield’s Group 2 P.B. Lawrence Stakes Day program in Melbourne.
In 2022 it changed dates again to late August and is now held on Rosehill’s San Domenico Stakes Day card.
The best three-year-olds out of the Up And Coming Stakes race may head towards the $1 million Golden Rose Stakes (1400m) that spring with Manawanui (2011) the last to do the double.
In 2022 the Up & Coming Stakes form was franked with the runner-up Golden Mile continuing on to win a host of subsequent races including the Group 1 Caulfield Guineas (1600m) in Melbourne.
Tom Kitten won the 2023 Up And Coming Stakes ahead of his Group 1 Spring Champion Stakes (2000m) win later that season.
