Sheraco Stakes

Looking for this year’s top Sheraco Stakes betting markets and tips? The expert tipsters at Neds have put together everything you need to know on the race.

The Sheraco Stakes is a Group 2 sprint race for fillies and mares held on Run To The Rose Day at Rosehill Gardens Racecourse in mid-September each year.

Part of the Sydney Spring Racing Carnival, the event is contested at set weights plus penalties and offers $300,000 in stakes.

First run in 1998 the Sheraco Stakes makes a nice lead-up into races including the Group 2 Golden Pendant (1400m) and even Melbourne’s Group 1 Empire Rose Stakes (1600m) held at Flemington on VRC Derby Day.

Any four-year-old mares out of the Sheraco Stakes may also head towards the lucrative $10 million Golden Eagle race, which the 2019 Sheraco winner Mizzy ran third in. Mizzy (2019) was also the last mare to complete the Sheraco Stakes – Golden Pendant double.

The 2020 Sheraco Stakes winner Haut Brion Her franked the form going on to run second in that spring’s Winners Stakes.

The $2 million The Invitation is also now a potential spring option for Sheraco Stakes graduates, a race the 2021 Sheraco winner Entriviere finished fourth in after her third in the Golden Pendant. The 2023 The Invitation winner also came via the Sheraco Stakes with Espiona (2nd) who also won that year’s Golden Pendant.

Other events run on the same card are the Group 2 The Run To The Rose for Golden Rose-bound three-year-olds and the Group 2 Theo Marks Stakes.

The $20 million The Everest is also a potential target for Sheraco Stakes graduates with the 2022 winning mare Shades Of Rose finishing eighth in that year’s edition of the world’s richest turf race.

In 2024 Sunshine In Paris successfully defended her title to become the third two-time Sheraco Stakes winner.
