2025 Rockfel Stakes Betting Tips

Touleen is the early favourite for the Rockfel Stakes and has done nothing but impress so far. There was a win at Leicester recently, with the 9/4 shot winning by over three lengths in a novice stakes when odds-on favourite Zanthos was beaten. That came after an August success at Newbury when the 2/1 favourite was able to oblige.

Aidan O’Brien goes into the race mob-handed and Diamond Necklace has secured a couple of wins during her career to date. The latest success came at Leopardstown when she was able to oblige at odds of 1/2. That was in a listed race over seven furlongs and followed on from a success at the Curragh in August which means she’s going for a hat-trick.

Fitzella made an instant impression when finishing second out of seven runners in May as a 33/1 shot. Then was a victory at Haydock before a solid run to finish fourth in the Albany Stakes. The horse then returned to the Ascot track to claim a July success when winning by a length before finishing second in the Prix du Calvados which was a Group 2 contest.

Precise is an O’Brien-trained runner who could end up being cracking each-way value. The latest effort was at the Curragh very recently when the filly was able to triumph in the Moyglare Stud Stakes. There was plenty to like about that Group 1 success and this came after winning the Prestige Fillies’ Stakes over seven furlongs.


2024 Dubai Rockfel Stakes Tips

There are some talented fillies lining up in the Dubai Rockfel Stakes, with Formal having clocked up back-to-back wins so far. Sir Michael Stoute trains a two-year-old who began her career with a success at Newbury in late July and then followed this up with a victory at Leicester earlier in September, with that coming on soft ground.

There’s an interesting runner in the form of Desert Flower, with Charlie Appleby saddling a two-year-old who was able to clock up consecutive wins at Newmarket in July and August, with a later victory being achieved at Doncaster. In the Betfred May Hill Stakes, the horse was able to score at even money against eight other runners.

Lake Victoria is one of several Aidan O’Brien-trained runners and there was a success at the Curragh in mid-September when fending off the challenge of four other horses, with this coming after a success at Newmarket in the middle of August. The season began at the end of June where fourteen rivals were fended off at the Curragh.

Simmering has bagged two wins this season from five attempts, with Ollie Sangster training a horse who has been in the places on a regular basis this term. Ballet Slippers also landed a victory in her latest outing and there could be more to come from Tabiti who has posted consecutive wins for Ralph Beckett and could be good each-way value.


2023 Rockfel Stakes Tips

Shuwari is clearly the horse with the best credentials when it comes to the Rockfel Stakes, with Ollie Sangster training a runner who has secured back to back victories ahead of this seven furlong encounter. There was a victory in the Fillies’ Novices Stakes at Newbury in June and there was a further win at Sandown on 27 July.

Jockey Oisin Murphy was able to ride the horse to a slender victory on that occasion and the same rider will be on board the charge, with Carla’s Way having claimed a win in the early part of the season. That came at Doncaster in a Maiden Fillies’ Stakes before finishing eighth out of seventeen runners in the Albany Stakes.

In the William Hill Prestige Fillies’ Stakes over seven furlongs on soft ground, the runner was able to finish second to favourite Darnation by two lengths, with the Simon & Ed Crisford-trained charge likely to be trading at a similar price to Ylang Ylang. The two-year-old runs for Aidan O’Brien and underwhelmed at The Curragh last time out.

In the Moyglare Stud Stakes, the filly finished dead last out of seven runners in that Group 1 encounter, although a return to form could be on the cards here. Previously to this, there was a solid performance in the Jockey Club Of Turkey Silver Flash Stakes over seven furlongs, with the mare opening her account with a win at the Curragh.
