|} The Norfolk Stakes is a Group 2 flat horse race in Great Britain open to two-year-old horses. It is run at Ascot over a distance of 5 furlongs (1,006 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in June. The event was established in 1843, and it was originally called the New Stakes. The inaugural running was won by Rattan. The race was renamed the Norfolk Stakes in 1973. It now honours the 16th Duke of Norfolk, who served as HM's Representative at Ascot from 1945 to 1972. For a period the event held Group 3 status, and it was promoted to Group 2 level in 2006. The Norfolk Stakes is currently staged on day three of the five-day Royal Ascot meeting. ==Records== Leading jockey (9 wins): * Lester Piggott – ''Abermaid (1961), Tin King (1965), Falcon (1966), Swing Easy (1970), Faliraki (1975), Emboss (1977), Precocious (1983), Magic Mirror (1984), Niche (1992)'' Leading trainer (4 wins): * Mathew Dawson – ''Hobbie Noble (1851), Liddington (1864), Belladrum (1868), Melton (1884)'' * James Ryan – ''Coltness (1875), Adriana (1882), Enterprise (1886), Orvieto (1890)'' * John Porter – ''Friar's Balsam (1887), Goldfinch (1891), Kissing Cup (1894), Flying Fox (1898)'' * Atty Persse – ''Sir Archibald (1907), Seaforth (1910), Damon (1926), Mr Jinks (1928)'' 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「Norfolk Stakes (Great Britain)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
