Frances Tressady Stakes

Group Three Betting Guide
Date: Saturday, February 15, 2025
Location: Flemington Racecourse – Melbourne, Victoria
Prize Money: $200,000
Distance: 1400m

The Frances Tressady Stakes is a Group 3 race for fillies and mares, run over 1400m under set weights and penalties at Flemington.

Conducted by the Victoria Racing Club, The Frances Tressady Stakes was first held in 1975 and, while not a major form race in recent years, it has produced some standout winners.

Notably, Typhoon Tracy (2009) and Aloha (2011) went on to win the Group 1 Coolmore Classic (1500m) at their next starts.

In 2023, the Frances Tressady Stakes was temporarily renamed the Tony Bourke Memorial to honour the respected Melbourne journalist who passed away the week prior.

The 2024 edition, worth $200,000, was won by Revolutionary Miss, defeating Forbidden City and Fortunate Kiss.

2024 Frances Tressady Stakes result



1stRevolutionary Miss (+450)
2ndForbidden City (+200)
3rdFortunate Kiss (+240)

Recent runnings of the Frances Tressady Stakes:

  • Revolutionary Miss produced a strong late surge to claim the 2024 Frances Tressady Stakes at Flemington, showcasing her class over the 1400m trip. Settling midfield under a patient ride, she hit top gear in the final furlong, charging past her rivals to secure a well-deserved victory under the guidance of Michael Dee.
  • It was a front-running demolition job by the returning Annavisto in the Frances Tressady Stakes, after missing the spring having failed in the Tatts Tiara in Brisbane on June 25. With just one jump out in the lead up, punters were still confident last year’s winner could make it back-to-back wins and she obliged in brilliant fashion to score in a scorching time. She started an even money favourite and ran to her price accordingly as Jamie Kah started well, and despite being pressured by the in-form Wrote To Arataki, was able to find the rail and drop her rival turning for home. Kah and Annivisto left them all chasing and proved far too good against the girls in Melbourne as Wrote To Arataki stuck on well for second, while Excelida was clearly the best of the closers.
  • Jamie Kah booted home another Flemington feature win when scoring in the Group 3 Frances Tressady Stakes (1400m) aboard Annavisto. The Mick Price & Michael Kent Jr-trained mare made it three wins from four first-up runs with what was an impressive performance. Kah wasn’t able to cross and lead with the front-running mare, as Damian Oliver booted up to hold the rail and the lead aboard his mount Electric Girl. That didn’t worry neither horse nor jockey though, as they were happy to settle just off the leader. When Kah asked the daughter of Reliable Man to quicken at the 400m, she quickly took care of Electric Girl before exploding away from the rest of the field to go on to score by three-and-a-quarter lengths.
