The Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival takes place predominantly at Randwick and Rosehill racecourses in Sydney, with the STC's Golden Slipper carnival at Rosehill and the AJC hosting the Doncaster Hcp Easter festival at Randwick. The autumn carnival is New South Wale's major racing carnival and offers more than $21 million in total prizemoney.
The $3.5 million Golden Slipper over 1200 metres for two-year-olds is the jewel in the crown for the Rosehill carnival, along with The BMW which is a weight-for-age event for open horses over 2400 metres. Golden Slipper day provides racing at its finest with 5 Group One races on offer.
Randwick hosts major races such as the highly rated AJC Australian Derby over 2400 metres for three-year-olds, the Doncaster Handicap over 1600 metres, the AJC Australian Oaks for 3yo fillies over 2400 metres, and the Sydney Cup over a distance of 3200 metres.
