The South Australian Derby is regarded as the most prestigious race to be held in the state and forms part of the Adelaide Racing Festival. Taking place every year at the Allan Scott Park Morphettville Racecourse in Adelaide, the Group 1 race headlines the track’s prestigious Super Sunday, and is held in May.

There are also the Group 3 Auraria Stakes (1800m) and the RA Lee Stakes (1600m).

The South Australian Derby is worth a lucrative $300,000, and is open to three-year olds to compete at set-weights over 2,500 metres, providing a thrilling battle on the track.
