Our Ladbrokes’ exclusive Thoroughbred Breeders Stakes 2024 betting tips will be detailed right here a day or so out from the event so stay tuned for theThoroughbred Breeders Stakes best bets.

  • To Win: #Silmarillion ($4.50 at time of publish) – BET NOW

Money is coming for the classy James Cummings-trained Silmarillion who is the early market mover here but still nice value to break her maiden status at start number three after two promising lead-ups. The Too Darn Hot filly has a wide alley (11) to overcome, but she’s doing plenty right to suggest she can win this Group 3 at HQ. Improved on a Canterbury third on debut when up notably in grade for the Group 2 Reisling Stakes at Randwick where she was narrowly beaten running second. In Melbourne now and gets her chance in this open 2YO’s race.
