Carnarvon Stakes Explained

|}The Carnarvon Stakes is a Listed flat horse race in Great Britain open to horses aged three years only. It is run at Newbury over a distance of 6 furlongs (1,207 metres) and is scheduled to take place each year in May.

The race was formerly known as the Hue-Williams Stakes in the 1980s and early 1990s. It attracted notable horses such as Dayjur (who was narrowly defeated by Tod in 1990), Dancing Dissident (a subsequent winner of the Group 2 Temple Stakes in its next run), and Shalford (who later won three Group 3 races over 6 furlongs). Subsequent editions of the race had various names until it was renamed the Carnarvon Stakes and elevated to Listed status in 2002.
