DISTAFF RACE
There are several reasons to bet on the DISTAFF RACE this Saturday. The GII Azeri Stakes at Oaklawn Park features some of the top horses from the Distaff division. A win in this Grade 1 race will make you a millionaire. You can bet on Letruska to take home the win in this race. It’s a heavy favorite, but several other horses have a shot in the stretch.
GROUP RACE
A Group horse race is one of the highest level of races in the sport. It has the highest prize money and most publicity, making it one of the most important events on the racing calendar. The horses must have an official rating of 115 or higher to be eligible for grouping. Some Group races are also internationally renowned. Listed races are less prestigious, but can still draw top horses. Some races can be classified as both Group 1 and Group 2 events.
INVITATIONAL
Before betting on The Invitation, it is essential to look at the form of the fillies and mares that have already won at an elite level. There will be a variety of form lines to consider, and punters must decide which ones are strongest. A winning form is obviously the best form, but the leading contenders in the lead-up races should be closely analysed as well. To win the Invitation, you’ll need to make the best possible selection.
MAIDEN RACE
A maiden horse race is usually limited to runners who have never won a race. Maidens aren’t eligible for claiming box, because they don’t get any weight allowance. Because of this, many maidens are ridden at scale weight or maiden special weight. Maidens are the lowest class of horses and rarely make the leap to the higher class of racing. As such, the majority of maidens are two-year-olds and older. However, there are exceptions such as Limited Liability, Churchtown, and Churchtown.
OAKS
The Oaks Stakes is a Group 1 flat horse race in Great Britain. It is held annually at Epsom Downs and is open to three-year-old fillies. The race is run over one mile, four furlongs, and six yards. The race is scheduled to take place each year in late May. It is considered the second oldest Classic race. In addition to the Kentucky Derby, The Oaks Stakes is the most prestigious race in Great Britain.
