2026 Irish 1,000 Guineas Betting Tips

Precise could do no wrong until the recent 1000 Guineas. Back in August, there was a success at Cork when obliging over seven furlongs. That was followed by a smart effort at Goodwood in the Group 3 Prestige Fillies' Stakes. Fending off favourite Moon Target was no mean feat and that came before a quality performance in the bet365 Fillies' Mile.

That Group One success was enjoyed by over three lengths although the 9/5 favourite was able to only finish seventh at Newmarket in early May. The horse was five lengths off the pace to bring an unbeaten run to an end, although the runner boasts solid credentials and the bookies still rate the runner as having a solid chance of victory.

True Love is operating at a similar price and comes into the race bidding for a third successive victory. There was an April win at Leopardstown where the 3/1 joint-favourite got the better of twelve other runners. That came before a brilliant run at Newmarket where the 5/1 chance was able to score in the English 1,000 Guineas.

Evolutionist is the other strong contender who could go well at a backable each-way price. The horse has to be considered after finishing runner-up in the 1,000 Guineas where the horse was less than two lengths off the pace. There was also an April success at Longchamp in the Prix de la Grotte where the horse produced an accomplished performance over a mile.

2025 Irish 1000 Guineas Betting Tips

Lake Victoria produced a series of stunning performances as a two-year-old, with the bookies installing her as favourite for the Irish 1000 Guineas. However, she was only able to land sixth place in the English equivalent at Newmarket. Perhaps she’ll improve at The Curragh, with the mare previously obliging at the Breeders’ Cup meeting.

This was an odds-on success in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf race, with a one and a half length victory being achieved at Del Mar. There was also a triumph as a favourite in the Cheveley Park Stakes over six furlongs, with the horse having also won the Moyglare Stud Stakes at The Curragh.

Even so, Swelter might be a viable alternative. Dermot Weld has seen his horse pick up a couple of wins and the latest of these came at Leopardstown at the end of March. That success came after obliging at the same track back in July but it’s clear the horse is untested. Maybe Ollie Sangster will have some success in the race and he’s got a couple of decent contenders.

Flight was second in her seasonal debut when running in the 1000 Guineas. The horse wasn’t given much of a prayer when being sent off at 28/1, although she only missed out by a single length in the end. This came after finishing third in the Oh So Sharp Stakes over seven furlongs, with a victory at Sandown occurring back in August.
