It is run over a distance of 1 mile, 2 furlongs and 7 yards (2,018 metres) at Sandown Park in late April. ==History== The event was established in 1963, and it was originally called the Westbury Stakes. It was initially held in late May or early June. The Westbury Stakes continued to be staged in May or June until 1973. That year's edition took place at Kempton Park. Its date was switched with that of the Brigadier Gerard Stakes in 1974, and from this point it was held in April. The race was given its present title in 1987. It was renamed in memory of Sir Gordon Richards, a famous jockey who died the previous year. The Gordon Richards Stakes is part of a two-day meeting which features both flat and jump races. Other events at the meeting include the Bet365 Gold Cup, the Celebration Chase, the Sandown Classic Trial and the Sandown Mile. 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「Gordon Richards Stakes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
