Agnes Keyser Fillies' Stakes
Flat horse race in Britain
The Agnes Keyser Fillies' Stakes is a Listed flat horse race in Great Britain open to fillies aged three years.
It is run at Goodwood over a distance of 1 mile 1 furlong and 197 yards (1,991 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in June.
The race was originally run at Newbury over 1 mile and 2 furlongs. Prior to 2018 its registered title was the Ballymacoll Stud Stakes and from 2003 to 2017 it was run as the Lord Weinstock Memorial Stakes in memory of Arnold Weinstock (1924—2002), a British businessman who owned the Ballymacoll Stud. The stud closed in 2017 and the race's registered title was subsequently changed to the Abingdon Stakes. In 2018 and 2019 the race was run as the Johnnie Lewis Memorial Stakes to commemorate Major Johnnie Lewis, a bloodstock agent who died in 2017. In 2023 the British Horseracing Authority transferred the race to Goodwood and it took its present title.

Why this record matters
“Agnes Keyser Fillies' Stakes” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Agnes, Keyser and Fillies' provides the most credible route into that argument.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 3, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q20711491. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2018, 2003, 2017 and 1924.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
