All You Need to Know About the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket 

The 1000 Guineas Stakes is a hugely popular Group 1 horse race scheduled exclusively for three-year-old fillies. Established five years after the 2000 Guineas Stakes, this event is typically held on the weekend following the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket Racecourse in Suffolk.  

Newmarket is considered by many to be the spiritual home of British horse racing, with the town home to dozens of stables, trainers, jockeys and thoroughbreds alike since the early 19th century.  

Like the 2000 Guineas, the 1000 Guineas Stakes was founded by the Jockey Club and Sir Charles Bunbury, the former co-founder of the Epsom Derby. The plan was to establish a race to showcase the up-and-coming fillies at the start of every flat racing season.   

Within 50 years of its launch, the 1000 Guineas was quickly established as one of the top races for the age group. Today, the 1000 Guineas is part of the five ‘Classics’, which include the 2000 Guineas. It’s one of two Classics which are restricted to fillies, the other being the Oaks at Epsom Downs.  

The results of the 2000 and 1000 Guineas Stakes tend to set the tone for the rest of the British flat racing season, with the Epsom Oaks, Epsom Derby and St Leger Stakes scheduled for May, June and September, respectively.  

These races get their name because the first prize pool for each race winner was 2,000 and 1,000 guineas, respectively. One guinea was the equivalent of 21 shillings or £1.05 in today’s money.  

Several ‘trial’ races are scheduled before the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket. The Nell Gwyn Stakes at Newmarket and the Fred Darling Stakes at Newbury are both Group 3 races, usually considered proving grounds for potential entrants into the 1000 Guineas. 

Additionally, the 1000 Guineas serves as a trial race for the Epsom Oaks. It’s very rare for a three-year-old filly to be capable of winning both the 1000 Guineas and the Oaks. The last horse to do so was the Aidan O’Brien-trained Love in 2020.  

The success of the 1000 Guineas has inspired a string of variant races outside of the UK, including the Irish 1000 Guineas at the Curragh and the German 1000 Guineas at Düsseldorf.  

Recent Winners of the 1000 Guineas 

Desert Flower under William Buick won the 2025 1000 Guineas, securing Charlie Appleby’s first triumph in this historic race. As a result, Appleby and William Buick became the first trainer-jockey partnership to win the Guineas double on Classic weekend for 20 years, matching the feat of Aidan O’Brien and Kieren Fallon in 2005.  

In 2024, Roger Varian's Elmalka surprised as he went off at a starting price of 28/1 with favourite Fallen Angel placing 8th.  

In 2023, Godolphin landed their first 1000 Guineas success since 2011 when Oisin Murphy rode Mawj to victory. The Irish-bred thoroughbred had previously won twice in the United Arab Emirates before being entered at Newmarket. Mawj was only the fifth favourite in the betting ring but showed great bravery and determination to keep with the leaders and stay on to pinch the victory over Tahiyra by half a length.  

The previous year, Cachet and James Doyle were victorious at the 2022 1000 Guineas. After finishing third in the Fillies’ Mile and the same again in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf, Cachet went one better to take the Nell Gwyn Stakes at Newmarket’s Rowley Mile before landing the 1000 Guineas shortly afterwards.  

Frankie Dettori was another popular Newmarket winner at the 2021 1000 Guineas, romping to victory on board Mother Earth. It was the sixth 1000 Guineas win in seven years for the Coolmore Stud in County Tipperary, Ireland.  

Dettori rode Mother Earth brilliantly, holding her back in the opening furlongs before letting her loose to dispute the lead in the latter stages, going on to win by a length from Saffron Beach.  

It was Dettori’s final triumph in the 1000 Guineas, and he ended his career with four wins in this long-established Newmarket meeting (Blue Bunting in 2011, Kazzia in 2002, and Cape Verdi in 1998 were his other successes). 

George Fordham remains the leading jockey in the race’s 210+ year history, winning the 1000 Guineas seven times between 1859 and 1883. Of the current crop, Ryan Moore is the jockey to watch, with four wins under his belt (Love in 2020, Minding in 2016, Legatissimo in 2015, and Homecoming Queen in 2012).  

The Most Successful Trainers at the 1000 Guineas 

The most successful trainer in the history of the 1000 Guineas is no longer with us. Robert Robson masterminded nine wins in the 1000 Guineas between 1818 and 1827, failing to win only one race in this period (1824). Robson was regarded as the ‘Emperor of Trainers’ and remains revered today for raising the bar for the status of horse racing trainers, bringing a sense of professionalism that’s been built on further still in the 21st century. 

As for the most successful jockey, the late George Fordham won seven times in the 1000 Guineas between 1859 and 1883. 

In the present day, Aidan O’Brien frequently produces winning fillies for this race, with six triumphs. Homecoming Queen was his first victory in 2012, before training 2016 and 2017 winners Minding and Winter.  

O’Brien then famously trained three consecutive winners – Hermosa in 2019, Love in 2020, and Mother Earth in 2021 – becoming the first stable to achieve this feat in over 100 years since George Lambton’s successes with Vaucluse (1915), Canyon (1916), and Diadem (1917).
