Lee Steere Stakes, Ascot Racecourse

The Group 2 Lee Steere Stakes is an early feature race lead-up of the annual Perth Summer Racing Carnival taking place in early November on the same day Melbourne hosts VRC Champions Stakes Day at Flemington.

A weight-for-age event contested over 1400m, the Lee Steere Stakes offers $300,000 in prize money as of 2023 and serves as a key lead-up into the Group 1 Railway Stakes (1600m). 

Luckygray won the 2011 and 2013 Railway Stakes and the Lee Steere in 2012, but no horse has won both races in the same year since Belle Bizarre (2006).

Run and won since 1898 having been inaugurated as The All Aged Stakes the time-honoured event has held Group 2 status since 1979 and plenty of top Perth racehorses have won the Lee Steere including in recent years Luckygray (2012) and Black Heart Bart (2015). 

In 2023 Dom To Shoot improved on a second in the Lee Steere to win the Group 1 Northerly Stakes (1800m) two starts later.

Which Horse Will Win The Lee Steere Stakes in 2024

The best way to pick which horse will win the Lee Steere Stakes in 2024 is to take into account their lead-up form in Perth, look for past performers in the race from previous years and look at their strike-rate over the 1400m – 1600m distance range. 

Additional factors to consider when picking the Lee Steere Stakes winner include: 

  • Last Year’s Results – This is a race that a lot of WA based horses will run successive years in a row. It’s not uncommon for last year’s winner to be the next year’s place getter, or vice versa. Massimo (2021-22) was the last back-to-back Lee Steere Stakes winner. 
  • Local Advantage – Winners have a tendency to demonstrate experience at Ascot Racecourse.

Lee Steere Stakes Favourites 2024

Favourites in 2024 Lee Steere Stakes betting include last year’s third placegetter Comfort Me, Simon Miller’s defending champion Valour Road looking to go back-to-back and Searchin’ Roc’s racing fit fourth-up.
