2025 Flying Childers Stakes Betting Tips

The Flying Childers Stakes is a Group 2 encounter at Doncaster on Friday, with Mission Central looking like the one to beat. The Aidan O’Brien-trained runner has clocked up a couple of fine performances this term, with the latest being a victory at the Curragh at the end of August. The 11/8 favourite was able to win a Group 3 encounter over six furlongs.

This came after fending off twenty-seven other runners at the same course a few weeks earlier. That was an impressive eight-length success, with this Maiden victory really laying down a marker. However, there are lots of other lively chances in this race and that includes Lady Iman who has enjoyed plenty of success this term.

However, the two-year-old finished well down the pecking order at York towards the end of August. That came after an impressive win in the Group 3 Molecomb Stakes over five furlongs. The 11/8 favourite was able to triumph by a length and a half on that occasion. There were previously successes at Curragh and Naas.

Havana Hurricane runs for Eve Johnson Houghton and there have been some smart showings. The latest effort came at Goodwood at the end of July, with the 3/1 favourite finishing third in the Molecomb Stakes. That came after a second-placed effort at Newbury Racecourse where the 6/4 favourite ran well to narrowly miss out.

Big Mojo has run three times this season, with the horse finishing second at Beverley in early July and that was followed by a success at Goodwood. Sent off at big odds of 25/1, the two-year-old landed the spoils in the Molecomb Stakes, with the runner actually dwelling at the start before emerging from the pack to cause a surprise win.

Magnum Force has landed three top-two finishes this season, with the latest effort being a runner-up spot at York when running a strong race. Sent off at 9/2, the horse was narrowly beaten by a neck after previously triumphing at Cork in the middle of August. However, some might prefer the chances of Aesterius.

The two-year-old was able to secure three victories from his first five appearances, with Archie Watson training a runner with a high official rating. There was a success at Longchamp in early September, with five other runners fended off on that occasion. That came after a second-placed finish at Goodwood when finishing behind Big Mojo.

Coto De Caza has been successful in his past two outings, with Simon & Ed Crisford training a runner who was successful at Goodwood in late July, with the horse able to triumph by two and a half lengths. That came after a win at Beverley where the runner fended off six other runners and the charge is now bidding for a consecutive hat-trick.

Inquisitively appears to be coming nicely to the boil right now, with the two-year-old having run extremely well at York last time out. Kevin Philippart De Foy saddles a runner who was able to see off a field of nine other runners, with the horse winning the Julia Graves Rose Stakes when fending off favourite Purosangue by two lengths.

Back in June, the horse was sent off at odds of 18/1 before claiming third place in the Windsor Castle Stakes and it was interesting that the winner that day was Big Evs. Sent off at 20/1, the two-year-old was able to achieve a stunning three-length victory and that was before another mighty success at Glorious Goodwood.

The bookmakers respected the Michael Appleby-trained runner to the extent that the horse was sent off as the 9/4 joint-favourite, with Purosangue beaten by a neck and it’s plausible that this runner will go off as market leader. Kylian is bidding to return to the winners’ enclosure after previously claiming wins at Newcastle and Sandown.

The horse was then third in the Molecomb Stakes before a disappointing effort in the Gimcrack Stakes, with Malc also an interesting runner who might have underwhelmed as the favourite in the Kingdom of Bahrain July Stakes although this was a competitive race and perhaps the shorter distance of five furlongs might be more to his liking.
