Which Horse Will Win The Millie Fox Stakes in 2024

Additional factors to consider when picking the Millie Fox Stakes winner include:
- Spring Return – Any fillies and mares that performed strongly in tougher events the spring prior make a good bet.
- Returning Runners – A number of recent mares have won the Millie Fox Stakes in their second or third attempt so watching for the key performers in prior editions can prove profitable.
