The Supreme Stakes is a Group 3 flat horse race in Great Britain open to horses aged three years or older. It is run at Goodwood over a distance of 7 furlongs (1,408 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in late August or early September.
The event was established in 1981, and was originally a Listed race called the Harroways Stakes. It was named after the Harroways, an area of the Goodwood Estate where the racecourse was founded. It was upgraded to Group 3 and given its present title in 1987.
The Supreme Stakes was formerly held in late September or early October. It was brought forward to an earlier date in 2007.
