|} The King George Stakes is a Group 2 flat horse race in Great Britain open to horses aged three years or older. It is run at Goodwood over a distance of 5 furlongs (1,006 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in late July or early August. ==History== The event was established in 1911, and it was originally founded to commemorate the coronation of King George V. The present system of race grading was introduced in 1971, and for a period the King George Stakes was classed at Group 3 level. The car manufacturer Audi sponsored the race from 2005 to 2011, and for several years it was known as the Audi Stakes. It has been sponsored by Gordon's Gin in 2012 and by Betfred since 2013. It was promoted to Group 2 status in 2010. The King George Stakes is currently held on the fourth day of the five-day Glorious Goodwood meeting. The leading participants often go on to compete in the Nunthorpe Stakes, and the last to win both races in the same year was Lochsong in 1993. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「King George Stakes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
