The Britannia Stakes

The Britannia Stakes is a class 2 heritage handicap thoroughbred race that is run during the course of the annual Royal Ascot Meeting. The Britannia Stakes is run over 1 mile and is open to the 3 year old thoroughbred racehorses. The race has a reputation for attracting big fields, and up to 30 entries compete in each race.

Britannia Stakes History and Winners

The Britannia Stakes was first run in 1928 on the straight mile of the Royal Hunt Cup Course. Over the years the race has evolved into one of the handicap highlights of the Royal Ascot Meeting, and recently had its prize fund doubled by festival organisers.

The Brittania Stakes is an extremely competitive race, which makes it difficult for trainers to stitch together winning runs. Trainer John Gosden won the race in 2000 and 2001, however he failed to follow these wins up with additional titles, and in recent years Sir Michael Stoute’s entries have proved to be amongst the strongest competitors in the Britannia Stakes.

Britannia Stakes Betting Tips

  • The size of the field combined with the effects of the handicap make Britannia Stakes one of the toughest races of the season to call. Punter’s wishing to bet on this race are best off placing a couple of each way bets on runners priced up to 33-1.
