The TJ Smith Stakes is an Australian Turf Club Group 1 Thoroughbred horse race at Weight for Age run over a distance of 1200 metres at Randwick Racecourse, Sydney, Australia in the autumn during the ATC Championships series. Total prize money is A$3,000,000.

History

The inaugural race in 1997 was known as the Endeavour Stakes. In 1999 the race was renamed in honour of the trainer Thomas John Smith, who won 33 racing titles in Sydney. The race has risen in prestige due to the stakes offered. In recent years it has attracted high calibre sprinters such as Black Caviar and Takeover Target who have gone on to win overseas.
