Which Horse Will Win The Queen Of The South Stakes 

The best way to pick which horse will win the Queen Of The South Stakes in 2024 is to take into account their lead-up autumn racing form, assess the barriers, look for the proven Group performers and the genuine milers in the mix. 

Additional factors to consider when picking the Queen Of The South Stakes winner include: 

  • Milers: Female gallopers proven at the 1600m distance make the best bet in the Queen Of The South Stakes.
  • Top Three: The majority of recent Queen Of The South Stakes winners came off a top three lead-up run so backing in-form runners is key.

Queen Of The South Stakes Favourites 2024

Favourites in 2024 Queen Of The South Stakes betting include the Patrick Payne-trained Group 3 runner-up at Caulfield last time out Seonee, Mark Walker’s Group 1 winning New Zealander Campionessa down in grade, and consistent six-year-old Foxy Frida who has a strong record at the track including back-to-back seconds in the past two editions of this race.
