Home / Horse Racing / Nunthorpe Stakes
Run over five furlongs at the York Tote Ebor Meeting each August, the Group One Nunthorpe Stakes is one of several top class races for top class sprinters. It takes place on the third day of the meeting and is the racing highlight of the day, with plenty of interest in the betting and odds for what is usually a hugely competitive race.
The race has had an interesting history in that it started life in 1903 as a Selling race, but has progressed to its current status by attracting high grade sponsorships, including that of William Hill, when it became known as the William Hill Sprint Cup. It reverted back to the Nunthorpe Stakes in 1990 and is currently sponsored by the Coolmore Stud.

20/1 chance Margot Did caused something of an upset as she landed the latest race of the British Champions' Series. Hayley Turner produced a masterful ride to land her own second Group One win of the season, while Hamish McGonagall and Prohibit completing the places. There was disappointment for the well fancied ante-post favourite Hoof It though as the gelding was well off the pace throughout.
