The Rosehill Guineas is held over 2000m at Rosehill as part of the Triple Crown Series.
The Triple Crown series starts with the Randwick Guineas (1600m) two weeks prior to the Rosehill Guineas (2000m) and culminates a fortnight later with the Australian Derby (2400m).
Connections of Rosehill Guineas runners are always wanting to see their runner handle the 2000m after racing at 1600m in the Randwick Guineas with an eye on the Derby at 2400m.
The honour roll that the Rosehill Guineas has, matches up against any race in the world. With the likes of Phar Lap, Tulloch, Tie The Knot, Octagonal and Kingston Town all previously winning the prestigious race.
The Rosehill Guineas only became a 2000m race back in 1948, with it being held at 1800m and 1400m prior to that. In 1980 the race gained an elevation to Group 1 status.
In recent times only The Autumn Sun (2019) has gone close to completing the Triple Crown when taking out both the Randwick Guineas and Rosehill Guineas, but was retired before getting a chance to complete the third leg in the Australian Derby. The last time the triple crown was completed was by It’s A Dundeel in 2013.

Recent Rosehill Guineas winners
- Riff Rocket ($2.80) has produced a scintillating turn-of-foot to claim the Group 1 Rosehill Guineas (2000m), adding his second Group 1 victory to the resume after taking out the VRC Derby (2500m) in the spring. The Chris Waller barn had initially held dual acceptances for the Group 1 Ranvet Stakes (2000m) as well, but the decision to keep the son of American Pharoah against his own age group has paid dividends. It was built as a match-race when final fields were announced on Wednesday, with he and the James Cummings-trained Tom Kitten ($3.10) unable to be split by online bookmakers after the withdrawal of Militarize. The race didn’t eventuate that way however, as Tom Kitten was given every conceivable chance by Hugh Bowman, finding the perfect position two pairs back along the inside running rail. Riff Rocket was sent three-wide rather early by Nash Rawiller, but knew the motor he had underneath him, as the potential staying star of the future let-down with a blistering turn-of-foot in the concluding stages. Ceolwulf ($15.00) and Cap Ferrat ($18.00) attempted to fight off the canvas to mount a challenge, but it was Riff Rocket’s day going on to score an impressive 0.8-length victory.
- Chris Waller and Nash Rawiller have combined for Group 1 success as Lindermann proved too strong, getting his head down on the line to secure the Group 1 Rosehill Guineas. It’s been a preparation of improvement for this Lonhro colt, as he worked his way from BM78 level first-up before finding second in the Group 1 Randwick Guineas last time out. He was a front running eye-catcher on that occasion and the script set up perfectly today with no other pacemaker to stop jockey Nash Rawiller from dictating to his rivals from the front. He made his way across from barrier eight with relative ease, before pinching some slow sectionals keeping most of the backmarkers out of play turning for home. Race favourite Pericles just missed the bob at the end of the 2000m journey, after tagging the back on Lindermann every step of the way. While Williamsburg was the best of the backmarkers making inroads to find third position. Lindermann was just too good though, holding off the late challenge from Pericles in a ding-dong battle to score.
- Star three-year-old colt Anamoe had just five rivals to get the better of in the Rosehill Guineas, and he did so in emphatic style. With Spring Champion Stakes winner Profondo bounding along out in front, he was always going to tire late and it left the race perfectly for Anamoe to run straight past him. When asked to quicken by James McDonald at the 300m mark, Anamoe would go on to put six lengths on Randwick Guineas back in second and further solidify his stance as the season’s best three-year-old. Read our full recap of the 2022 Rosehill Guineas here.
- Punters still had faith in Mo’unga being the heavily backed favourite after the dissapointing second place run in the Randwick Guineas two weeks prior to the event. The punters were on the right track as he settled in the second half of the field until he was asked to give by jockey Tommmy Berry in a close five-way dash to the posts where the three-year-old horse produced the win by .2 of a length giving Annabel Neasham her first group one win on the books.
- On the back of a huge run in the Cox Plate in the spring, Castelvecchio got his deserved Group 1 victory in the Rosehill Guineas. On a day where it favoured on-speed runners, Craig Williams took the usual back marker to the first half of the field and when asked for an effort managed to keep his rivals at bay to bring up a deserved Group 1 victory. Only Prince Fawaz managed to give Castelvecchio a scare, getting to within a half length of the colt.
- Having come from the clouds to take out the Randwick Guineas, The Autumn Sun was sent around as a short priced favourite in the Rosehill Guineas. Having been trapped wide without cover early on Kerrin McEvoy managed to find the colt some cover midfield. When cornering The Autumn Sun quickly pounced on the leader Arrogant. Arrogant however wasn’t going down without a fight and through the home straight the pair went stride for stride before The Autumn Sun prevailed to score by a head on the line.
- Having been touted as a promising colt throughout the early stages of his career, D’Argento certainly had not been a punters pal. However, he rewarded his loyal following when proving dominant in the Rosehill Guineas. Having been well beaten in the Randwick Guineas a fortnight earlier, trainer Chris Waller had doubts he would see out the 2000m. See it out he did, handing a Group 1 double to Hugh Bowman and Chris Waller on the day.
- With co-trainer Jamie Richards on course the ever popular Gingernuts managed to put in one hell of a performance to take out the Rosehill Guineas. Under a perfect ride from Opie Bosson the kiwi raider kicked clear with 300m to go sustaining a healthy margin down to the winning post and stamping his claims for a tilt at the Australian Derby.
- Having taken out the VRC Derby in the spring, Tarzino under a pearler of a ride from Craig Newitt rewarded favourite backers who took the $3.10. The Mick Price colt was a touch unlucky in the Randwick Guineas, but having settled closer to the speed this time round, he proved too hard to hold out and got the job done with relative ease.
