Neville Sellwood Stakes
The Neville Sellwood Stakes is an Australian Turf Club Group 3  Thoroughbred quality handicap horse race, for horses aged four years old and older, over a distance of 2000 metres, held annually at Rosehill Racecourse in Sydney, Australia. Total prize money for the race is A$160,000.

History

The race is named after jockey Neville Sellwood (1922−1962), who rode champions Tulloch and Todman, first Golden Slipper Stakes winner. Sellwood was also victorious in the USA and in 1962 achieved what was perhaps his greatest success, victory on Larkspur in The Derby. Sellwood died after a fall in 1962 at Maisons-Laffitte Racecourse, near Paris, France.
