RJ Peters Stakes
Looking for this year’s RJ Peters Stakes betting odds, field and tips? The experts at Neds have put together everything you need to know before this year’s race.
Run over 1,500 metres, the R.J. Peters Stakes is a Group 3 handicap race taking place at Ascot Racecourse in November as part of the WA Champion Fillies Stakes Day card. With a $200,000 prize purse, it attracts some of Western Australia’s best middle distance runners.
Starting out as a Principal race, this race was made a Listed race in 1979, followed by an upgrade to Group 3 in 1986.
This race serves as a good lead-up for the Group 1 Railway Stakes (1600m), one of the three elite level features of the Perth Summer Racing Carnival as well as January’s Group 2 Perth Cup (2400m). Mississippi Delta (2019) was the last runner to complete the R.J. Peters Stakes – Perth Cup double in the same racing season.
In 2020 the RJ Peters Stakes winner Truly Great finished a disappointing seventh in the Railway Stakes before atoning in his next run to win the Group 1 Northerly Stakes (1800m) – which was formerly known as the Kingston Town Stakes.
In 2021 Kissonallforcheeks won the RJ Peters Stakes before finishing third in both the Railway Stakes and then Kingston Town Stakes.
In 2022 the RJ Peters Stakes runner-up Alsephina went on to run second in the Railway Stakes trifecta the following weekend while the RJ Peters winner Mojo Rhythm finished a brave fifth in the Group 1.
The 2023 RJ Peters Stakes form was franked with the runner-up Alsephina running second in the Railway next start. She was also excellent the following spring in Melbourne when third in the 2024 Group 1 Toorak Handicap and fourth in the Group 1 Empire Rose Stakes.
