Glorious (Alycidon) Stakes
The Glorious Stakes, founded initially as the Alycidon Stakes to mark the victory of the 1949 Goodwood Cup winner, was first staged in 1979 as a conditions race over 12 furlongs for 3-year-olds and upwards. By 1985 it had been elevated to Listed status, and in 1987 the race had evolved into the Alycidon Glorious Stakes. In 1989 the reference to Alycidon was dropped and it became the Glorious Stakes, the name by which it is known today. In 1993 it was run as a Handicap for 4-year-olds and above, but went back to being a conditions race in 2004. From 2008 onwards it reached Group 3 status and is now traditionally held on the penultimate day of the Festival. |
