George Moore Stakes
Looking for this year’s George Moore Stakes betting odds, field & form guide? The experts at Neds have put together everything you need to know before the race.
Occurring in either early December or late November, the George Moore Stakes is a big part of the Queensland summer racing calendar. Originally launched as a Group 3 race, it was downgraded to a listed race from 1983-2000, before regaining group status from 2001 until present.
The George Moore Stakes, held at Brisbane’s Doomben Racecourse, is a 1200m sprint run under quality handicap conditions.
The race can serve as a nice lead-up into the Group 2 $2 million The Ingham Stakes (1600m) – formerly the Villiers Stakes – conducted over the Randwick mile the following weekend.

Which Horse Will Win The George Moore Stakes
The best way to pick which horse will win the George Moore Stakes in 2024 is to take into account lead-up form in similar grade races, look at their records at the Doomben track and to back proven Group horses.
Additional factors to consider when picking the George Moore Stakes winner include:
- Home-ground Sprinters – With high prize money (by Brisbane standards), as well as a handicap, this race is sure to attract some of the fastest at shortest distance from the local talent pool. Make sure to follow a few local shorter races at Doomben before the big day.
- Internationals – Although a rarity, their presence can shake things up, sometimes a clear but unexpected advantage can be shown over the locals.
- Tempo – Most runners will want to establish a solid tempo early on in the race. Those coming from a wider gate will want to get ahead of the pack early.
