Which Horse Will Win The Vamos Stakes in 2025
The best way to pick which horse will win the Vamos Stakes in 2025 is to take into account their Tasmanian autumn / summer racing form, assess the barriers, consider the weight the horse will carry and look for the in-form horses from the top local stables.
Additional factors to consider when picking the Vamos Stakes winner include:
- Best Lead Up – To get a forecast of this race, tune in to the Bow Mistress Stakes, taking place in Hobart a fortnight earlier. Take The Sit (8th in 2022) and Megamea (3rd in 2024) were the latest Vamos Stakes winners to come out of that race that is now run as the Mystic Journey Stakes before the filly Geegees Mistruth did the double in 2025.
- Interstate Invasion – Expect to see some expertly trained Victorian horses travelling down to the Apple Isle for this race.
- Age Factor – Just two fillies – Deroche (2020) and Geegees Mistruth (2025) – have defeated the older mares in the Vamos Stakes since 2006.
