The Golden Eagle is an Australian Turf Club thoroughbred horse race run over 1,500 metres on turf at Rosehill Racecourse in Sydney, Australia on the last Saturday in October.
Run for the first time in 2019, with prizemoney of $10 million, it is the world's second richest race on turf after The Everest.
[1][4] The inaugural $7.5m Golden Eagle[2] was won by the Chris Waller trained Kolding underneath in-form hoop Glen Boss.
Kolding, a last-start winner of the Epsom Handicap, he was sent out as an equal second-favourite at $6 and he confirmed his status as an elite galloper with an authoritative win over a gallant Sunlight, with Mizzy narrowly holding on for third over Behemoth.
Race favourite Arcadia Queen ($3.30) had her chance but couldn't match motors with the winner, finishing fifth in the 16-horse field.
