The Alexandra Stakes typically attracts above average fillies who are suited by the set weight plus penalty conditions of the race and generally speaking the better quality females have a decided advantage over their rivals.
Fillies who previously contested races like the Group 3 The Vanity Stakes over 1400m on Lighning Stakes day or the Group 2 Kewney Stakes over 1600m on Australian Cup day might consider tacking this event.
Princess Jenni (2019) finished seventh in the Kewney Stakes over 1400m at Flemington before scoring a classy victory in this event for the David Brideoake stable at Mornington.
Recent Alexandra Stakes winners include Think Bleue (2018) and Oregon's Day (2017).
