The Australian horse racing season runs from August to July each year and we have listed all the Group 1 and Group 2 races on the racing calendar.

The Lightning Stakes is a Group 1 Australian thoroughbred horse race at Weight for Age, run over a distance of 1000 metres at Flemington Racecourse, Melbourne in February.

The Lightning Stakes is the first Group 1 race on the Australian Racing Calendar, taking place in either late January or early February annually. The Lighting Stakes has been the first leg of the Global Sprint Challenge since 2005 and it is followed by the Australia Stakes at Moonee Valley Racecourse which is an ideal lead up race.

The race has been won by many of Australia's best sprinters over the years and more often than not it will be taken out by a top class racehorse.
