    Robert Sangster Stakes Introduction

    The Robert Sangster Stakes is a Group 1 race which takes place each year in May. The race in 2023 will be held on Saturday 6th of May at Morphettville Racecourse. Looking back to the race in 2022, it was won by Snapdancer.

    Named after the flamboyant owner Robert Sangster who had an impact on South Australian racing with his partnership with Colin Hayes, this race was first conducted in 1983 when won by Ranee’s Palace.

    Run at weight-for-age for fillies and mares two-years-old and upwards, it is run over the sprint distance of 1200m.

    Some of Australia’s greatest fillies and mares have been successful in this race. The Lee Freedman mare Alinghi (2005) won this race with her typical finishing burst, then Peter Moody took Black Caviar across the border and she won with her usual authority in 2012 before going overseas for Royal Ascot glory.

    The race was elevated to Group 1 status in 2005, the year Alinghi won and ironically Lee Freedman trained the winner the first three times the race was run at Group 1 level and he is joint record holder with Mick Price who has also won this race on three occasions.

    Damien Oliver is the most successful rider with three wins to his credit.

    Robert Sangster Stakes Tips From Experts

    Robert Sangster Stakes Betting 2023

    There are a lot of important factors to consider before betting on the Robert Sangster Stakes. Make sure you have a read on below before you place your bets:

    Is Previous Robert Sangster Stakes Form a Good Indicator of Future Success?

    There has not been a multiple winner of the Robert Sangster Stakes suggesting that the form from the previous year has not been a good guide to finding the winner the following season.

    Should I Bet On The Favourite in the Robert Sangster Stakes?

    Only four favourites have been successful since 1999 and two of them were the champions in Alinghi and Black Caviar suggesting that favourites have found it hard to win this race.

    Since the first running of this race in 1983 only 9 favourites have won the Robert Sangster Stakes. Unless the filly or mare is an out and out champion, we would be looking away from the favourites.

    Formlines from Lead Up Races

    The traditional local race leading into this is the R.N. Irwin Stakes over 1100m run at Morphettville two weeks before this.

    Look for fillies and mares who have had a successful stint during the Victorian Autumn Carnival as a guide to finding the winner.

    Age

    The older mares have had the wood on fillies in recent years. Two of the last four winners have been six-year-old mares, while Snapdancer (2022) won as a 5YO.

    Weight

    The race is run under weight-for-age conditions and should be even to all ages. At this time of the season, three-year-old fillies may get a slight advantage but they must be very good to beat the older mares.

    Gender

    Race is restricted to fillies and mares and the mares have a very good record over the fillies. The last three-year-old to win was Rostova (2010).

    Robert Sangster Stakes Odds 2023

    Well before the Robert Sangster Stakes field is released – many bookmakers will open up early markets, or even all-in markets, for Robert Sangster Stakes betting. Many believe that this is the ideal time to bet on your horse because you could get really great odds on your choice.

    Once the bookies release their Robert Sangster Stakes odds for 2023, they will tend to fluctuate all the time. There are a few things that cause this, but when we get a better idea of the type of horses that will be aiming for the Robert Sangster Stakes, along with their recent form, you will see the odds change dramatically.

    If you do choose to place your bets in these early markets, it means you could find the favourite at odds of $10 or more. This means, if your horse does go on to win, you will get more return on your bet! However, there is additional risk if you do choose this option and you should be aware of what’s at stake.

    This is because depending on when you place your 2023 Robert Sangster Stakes futures bet, your horse may not even get a run, but you also won’t get your money back, which occurs when the market is ‘All-In’ or closer to the starting date. If you are looking to have a bet when it says ‘Before Noms’, then you can rest easy knowing you’ll receive your money back if your horse doesn’t run in the Robert Sangster Stakes.

    Robert Sangster Stakes Field 2023

    A great field filled with high quality runners was announced to contest the 2022 Robert Sangster Stakes. Eventually there was one scratching, which meant there were 15 runners taking part in the race. The betting was led by $4.60 favourite, September Run. Having just won the Group 1 William Reid Stakes in her last start, punters really liked the look of the 4YO.

    Next up in the betting markets was Bella Nipotina, at $6.00. The 4YO also won her last start, which was a gap of 4 weeks between races, and was the Group 2 Sapphire Stakes. She has never won at Group 1 level though.

    Then we had Away Game on the third line of betting, at $8.00, who most recently finished 7th in the Group 1 The Galaxy, but before that race, she finished in 2nd place in the Group 1 Oakleigh Plate. Has been tried 7 times at Group 1 level and is yet to cross the line in first place.

    Robert Sangster Stakes Results 2023

    It was a fairly open field for the 2022 Robert Sangster Stakes, with no heavy favourite for punters to jump on. In the end the $4.60 favourite, September Run, didn’t even win the race, it was in fact $12 chance Snapdancer.

    Snapdancer had a great ride from jockey Ethan Brown, and was able to overcome the widest barrier of them all (15) to get the chocolates, finishing 1.5L ahead of second place.

    Snapdancer jumped beautifully and it all looked pretty much over from there, as the 5Yo cut across the field instantly, put a sizable gap between herself and the rest of the field, and led the race from start to finish.

    It was a great effort by Away Game, who started from the inside barrier, but at the end of the day just didn’t have the speed to get home first, so she had to finish for second place, 1.5L off  the pace.

    Wrapping up the minor placings was September Run, who just wasn’t able to get the space after settling in near the back of the field, and had to fight off a challenge from Another Award and Bella Nipotina, who finished in 4th and 5th, respectively.
