The Thousand Guineas is a popular race during an extended Melbourne spring carnival and many of the entrants push on to races later in the spring.
Raced at Caulfield, the Thousand Guineas is a great guide to fillies which will later become better as mares. Unlike a few age-group races in Australia, the Thousand Guineas is a race where the fillies strengthen nicely and continue to race at a high level for years to come.
Examples of that in recent history have been the likes of Miss Finland, Gregers, Amicus and May’s Dream which all maintained their form later in their careers.
Punters can bet into the Thousand Guineas markets for most of the year which makes it a lucrative betting affair for serious and casual punters.
Held several weeks prior, the Thousand Guineas Prelude is often a good form indicator leading into this Group 1 race.

2024 Thousand Guineas result
1st – Another Prophet (+3000)
2nd – Aeliana (-200)
3rd – Too Darn Lizzie (+590)
Recent runnings of the Thousand Guineas
- Australia’s top trainers came to the fore in the Group 1 Thousand Guineas, with Another Prophet ($34) for Ciaron Maher taking out the three-year-old fillies contest ahead of the Chris Waller-trained Aeliana ($3) and Too Darn Lizzie ($26) from the Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott stable. Too Darn Lizzie led the field at a strong tempo, followed by Stage ‘N’ Screen ($8), Supercilious ($41), and the eventual winner, who settled in the one-one position and received the best run of the race. Horse racing bookmakers favourite Aeliana settled well back in the field with other market fancies Lovelycut ($11) and Benagil ($11). Turning for home, Too Darn Lizzie drifted off the inside rail and gave a strong kick, but Another Prophet loomed largely on her outside, and she took over with 200m to go. Matisse ($16) and Aeliana let down with their finishing bursts, with the former inconveniencing the latter slightly, before James McDonald asked for the ultimate effort in the final 150m. To her credit, Aeliana picked herself up, and she rattled home down the middle of the track but left her run too late and couldn’t pick up Another Prophet, who claimed a half-length win in the feature event at Caulfield.
- Chris Waller & James McDonald have combined for back-to-back Group 1 Thousand Guineas (1600m) successes, with Joliestar ($4.60) replicating the feat of Madame Pommery in last year’s edition. The daughter of Zoustar put the writing on the wall last start at Flemington in the Listed Desirable Stakes, producing a blistering finish from near last to secure a second-place finish. The market gravitated to the Chris Waller-trained filly prior to the jump, with Joliestar opening as much as $6.50 firming into $4.60 as it became clear you needed to be prominent in the run at Caulfield. That’s exactly what James McDonald elected to do from barrier one, keeping the three-year-old within striking distance before the turn, then storming away from her rivals when asked for the ultimate effort. Coeur Volante ($3.90) got a lovely economical run under Blake Shinn, managing to find the one-one from barrier five, however, she was unable to produce her customary turn-of-foot, while Kimochi ($9.00) was as honest as ever, powering into second. It all came to hand rather quickly for Skybird ($4.20), and she was far from disgraced finishing into a third-place finish, making up strong inroads late on a day where it was tough to make ground.
- James McDonald won yet another Group 1 in Melbourne, making it a third Group 1 win in four days at Caulfield. The Chris Waller-trained Madame Pommery claimed the Group 1 Thousand Guineas for 2022, after another 10 out of 10 ride by James McDonald, who was described as “possibly the best jockey we have seen in some time” by Dwayne Dunn. After sitting at the back of the field, the daughter of No Nay Never was able to cut the corner, when the rest of the field chose to go wide on the track to find better ground. The decision to cut the corner by James McDonald was a master stroke as she didn’t round a horse and ended up winning the Thousand Guineas easily by 1.5-lengths on the line.
- Having only won one race out of six starts before showing Caulfield what she has to offer. After jumping well, it didn’t take long for Yearning to find herself dead last. However it was the magic of Damien Thornton who managed to stay calm and collected until and opening was found at the 300 metre mark bringing her wide to overtake all 12 horses and to win by a length and move into the books as one of the biggest odds to win the Group One Thousand Guineas and firming his price in the VRC Oaks.
- On the back of a textbook perfect steer from Michael Walker, it was Odeum who demolished her rivals in the 2020 Thousand Guineas. Having sat on the back of the leader Vangelic throughout, Walker presented her at the top of the straight when a gap appeared and the Mick price Price & Michael Kent Jr-trained filly was quick to put her rivals away. The ride was arguably the difference in the race with Personal and race favourite Instant Celebrity settling in the final three in running, before running home strongly to fill the minor places.
- If the 2018 finish was one to behold, then it is safe to say the 2019 Thousand Guineas may have trumped it. In a three way go Flit wins the Group One Thousand Guineas in dramatic fashion, when sandwiched between runner up Missile Mantra and race leader Southbank, in a finish that will go down in history.
- In one of the most spectacular finishes in Thousand Guineas history, Darren Weir-trained filly Amphitrite delivered a stunning turn of foot to register her maiden Group 1 win. Entering the straight it looked like Amphitrite was too far back, but once the race hit the 200m the three-year-old unleashed and descended on the leaders like a steam train. Claiming Fundamentalist right at the post, Amphitrite announced herself as a filly to watch for the remainder of the spring.
- Kiwi import Aloisia had shown great signs since crossing the Tasman in 2017 but the market never seemed to trust the sprinter. That all changed in the Thousand Guineas. Settling about midfield in the 1000, Luke Nolan seemed to want to bring the horse to the outside as they straightened but a run presented itself up the inside and Aloisia snapped it up and streaked away to win ahead of Shoals and the fast-finishing Alizee.
- Global Glamour torched the field in the Flight Stakes in the lead up to the Thousand Guineas and the horse duly delivered as one of the favourites at Caulfield. Jumping out to an early lead, Global Glamour looked to be travelling smoothly in front but when the race entered the latter stages the horse looked vulnerable. The filly dug deep however and recorded a sensational win to gift Gai another Group 1 win.
- Stay With Me, trained by David Hayes, overcame a sluggish start to emulate her famous dam Miss Finland, who won in 2006. The $8 shot was ridden by Dwayne Dunn with Jameka running second and Badawiya finishing up in third position. Dunn had plenty of work to do after Stay With Me got out of the barriers poorly, but they slowly made ground on the inside before finding a gap and taking advantage of it.
- Amicus, expertly guided by Hugh Bowman upset a class field with an extraordinary turn of foot in the straight to win by half a length. After jumping from the gates well, Bowman steered Amicus towards the front and set a cracking tempo. As soon as the straight came Amicus charged clear to beat Traveston Girl and Sabatini. Amicus was trained by Chris Waller.
- Kerrin McEvoy let Guelph set the tempo early on and the favourite was simply too good in a strong field. The win was the Peter Snowden filly’s fourth group 1 race success. May’s Dream briefly challenged at the top of the straight, but Guelph ended up winning by 1.8 lengths. May’s Dream and Gregers rounded out the placings.
