Golden Pendant

Group Two Betting Guide
Date: Saturday, September 23, 2023
Location: Rosehill Racecourse – Sydney, New South Wales
Prize Money: $400,000
Distance: 1400m

The Golden Pendant is a Group 2 race held at Rosehill racecourse, on Golden Rose Day, for fillies and mares aged three-years-old and older, run under set weights and penalty conditions.

Since the inaugural running in 1996, the Golden Pendant has been run exclusively at Rosehill, while the race was run over 1200m until 2011, but has been run over 1400m from 2012 onwards.

The Golden Pendant was originally classified as a Listed race, before being upgraded to Group 3 level from 2001 until 2014. From 2015 the Golden Pendant has been run as a Group 2 race.

Mares have chosen to use the Golden Pendant as a key lead up race for the Angst Stakes or Epsom Handicap over 1600m; however, in recent times they have pushed onto The Invitation over 1400m, four weeks later.

Notable winners of the Golden Pendant include Nimalee (2022), Vangelic (2021), Subpoenaed (2020), Mizzy (2019), Daysee Doom (2017), Tycoon Tara (2016), More Joyous (2012), Hot Danish (2009) and Spinning Hill (2000).

Recent Golden Pendant results

  • 2022: Nimalee bests Palaisipan in thrilling finish
    In a thrilling finish to the 2022 edition of the Golden Pendant, the Matthew Smith-trained Nimalee ($8.50) has held off the challenge of Palaisipan ($10) to claim the Group 2 contest. After the speedy Expat ($17) led the field up, Nimalee took over with 300m to go and seemed to have the race within her keeping. However, within a few strides Palaisipan levelled up with her and they battled it out down the remainder of straight. One of the roughest runners in the race, Pippali ($81) boxed on well to finish third behind the leading duo.
  • 2021: Vangelic leads all the way
    Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott have claimed their second Golden Pendant victory in four years, after Vangelic ($7) lead all the way at Rosehill. Tim Clark made sure that he used barrier one to his advantage and he pushed his four-year-old mare out of the gates to hold out Nimalee ($8.50). As the field rounded the home turn, the winner appeared destined to come from the top two, as they kicked clear to fight out the finish. The race favourite Entriviere ($2.90) was the best off the swoopers and she finished third – half a length off Nimalee in second.
  • 2020: Subpoenaed defeats a wall of chasers
    Chris Waller has claimed his first ever Golden Pendant success with Subpoenaed ($5), who was given a great ride by Tommy Berry to take out the Group 2 contest. The race favourite, Haut Brion Her ($2.25) set up a hot tempo which suited the swoopers like Subpoenaed. There was never any real challenger to the winner, as Emeralds ($15) and Jen Rules ($21) nabbed second and third from a wall of four or five runners.
  • 2019: Mizzy proves way too strong
    After being challenged for the lead early, Mizzy ($5.50) and Tommy Berry eventually found the lead and never looked back, on their way to claiming the 2019 Group 2 Golden Pendant at Rosehill. Fundamentalist ($17) – who challenged Mizzy for the lead – couldn’t go with the winner at the top of the home straight. Champagne Cuddles ($4.20) and Dyslexic ($7) chased hard, but they never got close to the winner – finishing over a length off Mizzy.
