2025 Gillies Fillies' Stakes Betting Tips
A maximum of twenty runners line up in the Gillies Fillies' Stakes, with Danielle bidding to secure her first win of the season. John & Thady Gosden saddle a runner who was fifth at Ascot last time out. That effort came in the British Champions Fillies and Mares race in what was a competitive field, with that coming after finishing fourth at Doncaster.
On that occasion, the mare was sent off as the favourite in the Betfred Park Hill Fillies’ Stakes, with that coming after the horse was second in the Lillie Langtry Stakes. That Goodwood effort saw the horse narrowly miss out on victory, although Azaniya also boasts strong form and has racked up some impressive wins.
Owen Burrows saddles a three-year-old who has claimed a victory in three of the previous four showings. The latest success was in France where a two-length win was recorded at Compiegne. Back in the summer, there were other successes at Newmarket and Windsor. Anna Swan is a slightly bigger priced alternative who could go well.
William Haggas saddles a runner who finished second out of fourteen horses at Yarmouth, with the 14/1 shot performing well over one mile and two furlongs. Day Of Grace will step up in class and she has recorded a hat-trick of successes, with those coming at Thirsk, Goodwood and Newbury. She looks like each-way potential.
2023 Gillies Fillies’ Stakes Tips
Veil Of Shadows has been installed as the betting favourite to win the Virgin Bet Daily Extra Places Irish EBF Gillies Fillies' Stakes, with the three-year-old bidding to win his first race in seven attempts. After winning on her debut at Kempton back in February, there has been a succession of near misses since, with the horse finishing second at Newmarket last time out.
Sent off at racing odds of 18/1, there was a strong performance in the Group 3 Newmarket Pony Academy Pride Stakes. The Charlie Appleby-trained charge previously ran well at big odds when finishing sixth in the Princess Royal Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai Stakes. However, there are lots of lively contenders and Mukaddamah is available at a bigger price.
The latter was tenth out of eleven runners at Newmarket in the same race as Veil Of Shadows, although there was previously a second-placed finish in the EBF Stallions John Musker Fillies' Stakes at Yarmouth. We also saw the horse punch above her weight in a listed race at York back in July when finishing second to Midnight Mile.
Sound Angela is trained by Roger Varian and she was able to finish third out of eleven runners at Saint-Cloud in the Prix Dahlia - Fonds Europeen de l'Elevage. Perhaps Rousay is the best each-way betting value and the Richard Hannon-trained runner has hit the frame in the past three renewals, with more potentially to come.
