Ladbrokes Tip: The Chipping Norton Stakes produces more Ranvet Stakes winners than any other lead-up race
The Ranvet Stakes is one of five elite level Group 1 races run at Rosehill Gardens Racecourse on Golden Slipper Day in March during the annual Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival.
While the meeting’s feature race is the Group 1 $3.5 million Golden Slipper Stakes (1200m) for two-year-olds, plenty of talented gallopers run across the card including in the Ranvet Stakes field. The event is contested over 2000m under weight-for-age conditions and offers a juicy $700,000 in total prize money including $420,000 for the Ranvet Stakes winner.
The traditional Ranvet Stakes lead-up is the Chipping Norton Stakes and the double was last achieved by Contributer (2015).
The Ranvet Stakes winner is also exempt from ballot for a number of other upcoming features during The Championships in April with many backing up in The BMW, Queen Elizabeth Stakes and or the Sydney Cup over the two miles.
The latest edition of the Ranvet Stakes ran on Saturday March 23, 2019 .

The Chipping Norton Stakes produced six of those winners with another four coming out of the Group 1 Australian Cup (2000m), most recently Gailo Chop (2nd in 2018), run over the same distance at Flemington in Melbourne the week before.
Favourites in Ranvet Stakes betting have an imposing record over the past 10 odd years with eight saluting from 2005 – 2018 including six on the trot from 2005 – 2009.

Gai Waterhouse-trained horses are also prominent in the Ranvet Stakes markets as she has prepared seven winners since 1996 including four consecutive champions from 2007 – 2010.

Ranvet Stakes Tips
Ranvet Stakes tips favour in-form weight-for-age horses that finished first or second in the Chipping Norton Stakes in the lead-up.
Tipping the Ranvet Stakes favourite has proved a goldmine for punters over the past two decades with the shortest priced in the markets coming up trumps more often than not. The weight-for-age conditions of the race favour experienced performers and Ranvet Stakes tips often sway towards horses aged five or over with just two horses younger than five winning from 2006 – 2018.

Looking out for Gai Waterhouse’s name in the Ranvet Stakes form guide is always a good idea as she has prepared more Ranvet Stakes winners than any other trainer, most recently dual champion Theseo (2009-10).
Mares also have a solid record against the boys and are worth doing the Ranvet Stakes form of with four saluting between 2003 – 2015 including Silent Achiever (2014).
Ranvet Stakes Form Facts
- In the 14 years from 2005 – 2018 eight Ranvet Stakes winners jumped favourite for the punters

- No four-year-old has won the Ranvet Stakes since Tuesday Joy in 2008

- The only winner from a double-digit Ranvet Stakes barrier since Better Loosen Up (11 of 13 in 1990) was Theseo (12 of 12 in 2010)
