The Champions Stakes brings together proven Group 1 stars and rising middle-distance talents in one of Flemington’s great clashes. With conditions perfect for a true 2000m test, punters won’t want to miss our Best Bet and Value Play — both primed to deliver when it matters.
View our best selection and value play below.
Best Bet: Via Sistina ($1.65 / $1.12) – Â Bet Here
A proven Group 1 superstar who thrives at 2000m and is simply in a different class when she’s right. Her Cox Plate win was dominant, and she maps beautifully again with J-Mac aboard. If she brings anything close to that level, she’ll take plenty of running down.
Value Selection: Zambardo ($16.00 / $3.30) – Â Bet Here
A tough, improving gelding who’s strung together back-to-back wins in style — including a dominant Caulfield 2000m victory. He’s clearly on the up and gets his chance to measure up to elite weight-for-age company here. With even luck and a soft run in transit, he could surprise a few at big odds.
