Expert Tips on the 2025 Thousand Guineas
Stay tuned for our expert tips and Thousand Guineas betting predictions ahead of this year’s Group 1 feature at Caulfield.
To Win: No. 1 Apocalyptic ($2.10 at time of publish) – BET NOW
APOCALYPTIC (4) is the standout filly heading into the Thousand Guineas and Kiwi punters will be watching closely as she chases a Group 1 double. She’s swept through Sydney’s Princess Series and was dominant in the Flight Stakes last start, cruising home over the Randwick mile. Michael Freedman’s daughter of Extreme Choice has done everything right this prep and now heads to Caulfield with momentum, a perfect draw in gate four, and Mark Zahra taking the reins. She’s still holding above even money, which gives a touch of value, and with no concerns going Melbourne way, she looks ready to keep the streak alive. If you’re backing class, form, and upside — Apocalyptic ticks the boxes.

Thousand Guineas Tips for a Trifecta

The horse to finish on top of the Thousand Guineas trifecta is your Thousand Guineas winner, the runner who outlasted all their rivals and finished in the fastest time.
Placing a Thousand Guineas trifecta exotic bet on the race is a great way to add to the thrill and potentially be rewarded with a generous pay-out.
A Thousand Guineas trifecta is only successful if the three horses in your bet finish in the exact order you predict. Punters may choose instead to box their trifecta bets on the Thousand Guineas to cover more finishing options and increase the chances of winning.
