Australasian Oaks
Looking for this year’s Australasian Oaks betting odds, field and race tips? The experts at Neds have put together everything you need to know before this year’s race.
Run over 2,000 metres, the Australasian Oaks is a Group 1 race taking place at Morphettville Racecourse in late April or early May each year as part of the Adelaide Autumn Racing Carnival. It is held on Robert Sangster Stakes Day.
The weight-for-age feature offers $1 million in prize money as of 2024 and is open only to three-year-old fillies.
Group 3 Auraria Stakes (1800m) is the key lead-up into the Australasian Oaks and Sopressa (2018) was the last filly to do the double.
Fillies may also contest the Australasian Oaks off a Group 1 ATC Oaks (2400m) run in Sydney, with Toffee Tongue (2nd in 2020) the last winner to come out of that race.
The Group 1 Queensland Oaks (2200m) in Brisbane over the winter is good target for Australasian Oaks graduates. Egg Tart (2017) was the last filly to complete the Australasian Oaks – QLD Oaks double, while in 2022 Barb Raider ran second in both events.
