The '''March Stakes''' was a [flat](/source/Flat_racing) [horse race](/source/Horse_racing) in [Great Britain](/source/Great_Britain) open to horses aged three years. It was run at [Goodwood](/source/Goodwood_Racecourse) over a distance of 1 mile and 6 furlongs <small>(2,816 metres)</small>, and was scheduled to take place each year in late August.

==History==
The event was named after the [Earldom of March](/source/Earl_of_March), a title inherited by the eldest son of the [Duke of Richmond](/source/Duke_of_Richmond), the owner of Goodwood Racecourse. It was established when a new fixture was introduced at the venue in 1965.

The race was originally restricted to three-year-olds, and it was formerly a leading trial for the [St. Leger Stakes](/source/St._Leger_Stakes). The first horse to achieve victory in both events was [Commanche Run](/source/Commanche_Run) in 1984, and the latest was [Michelozzo](/source/Michelozzo_(horse)) in 1989.

The March Stakes was opened to older horses in 1999 and closed to them again from 2017.<ref>{{cite web|title=Qatar Goodwood Cup and Ascot's Queen's Vase upgraded as part of British Racing's long-term plan to safeguard the staying breed|url=http://www.britishhorseracing.com/press_releases/qatar-goodwood-cup-ascots-queen-vase-upgraded-part-british-racings-long-term-plan-safeguard-staying-breed/|website=[BHA](/source/British_Horseracing_Authority)|accessdate=16 March 2017}}</ref> In 2018 it was upgraded to Group 3 status as part of the European Pattern Committee's commitment to improving the race programme for [stayers](/source/Stayer_(horse)) in Europe.<ref>{{cite web|title=Progress continues on stayers' project following further Pattern race upgrades|url=https://www.britishhorseracing.com/press_releases/progress-continues-stayers-project-following-pattern-race-upgrades/|website=British Horseracing Authority|accessdate=23 August 2018}}</ref> The race was removed from the Pattern and Listed race programme in 2023.<ref>{{cite web |title=Update from the BHA's Flat Pattern Committee |url=https://www.britishhorseracing.com/press_releases/update-from-the-bhas-flat-pattern-committee/ |publisher=British Horseracing Authority |access-date=3 March 2023 |date=18 January 2023}}</ref>

From 2018 the race was run in memory of [John Dunlop](/source/John_Dunlop_(racehorse_trainer)) (1939-2018), a racehorse trainer who trained at [Arundel](/source/Arundel), near Goodwood.
