Musidora Stakes Betting

The Musidora Stakes is a fantastic betting opportunity as it takes place during the Dante Festival Meeting during May each year. The three day festival attracts plenty of interest in the odds and there are a variety of opportunities for punters to take advantage of with the flat race season now in full swing.

The Group Three races takes place on the first day of the meeting at York racecourse and it is a race for 3-year-old thoroughbred fillies. It involves a trip of 1 mile, 2 furlongs and 88 yards, and it is seen as an important trial for the Epsom Oaks.

Six fillies have won both the Musidora and the Epsom Oaks in the same season and some punters might find a bet on a 'double' of horse to win both races this year very tempting indeed. The last filly to achieve the feat was Sariska in 2009.

Also, when considering the latest odds it is worth noting that Henry Cecil is the most successful trainer in the race's history with nine winners and it could prove prudent to look out for fillies for Cecil's stables this year.

Other important races at the Dante Festival Meeting include:

Dante Stakes | Duke Of York Stakes | Middleton Stakes | Yorkshire Cup

Epsom Oaks

The Musidora Stakes for 3-year-old fillies is an important trial for the Epsom Oaks. The Musidora takes place just a month before the Oaks at Epsom and several winners in the York race have gone on to achieve success at Epsom.
