Golden Slipper Form Indicators
We'll have key details on the Golden Slipper 2025 form indicators and field once it is released on the Wednesday before the race.- Since Catbird's victory in 1999, only one Golden Slipper winner has emerged from a non-Sydney lead-up, that being Lady Of Camelot in 2024.
- Out of the 15 Golden Slipper winners from 2009 to 2024, an impressive 14 ran either first or second in their lead-up race, with the sole exception being Stay Inside in 2021, who secured victory after finishing fourth in the Todman.
- Notably, there have been 29 last-start winners since 1980.
- Remarkably, no horse has finished worse than fourth in their final lead-up before winning the Golden Slipper Stakes in over three decades.
- Only one juvenile, Sebring in 2008, has clinched victory in the Golden Slipper first-up in more than 30 years, accomplishing the feat after a six-week break between runs.
- Fillies have proven their mettle in the Golden Slipper since 2010, with seven notable victories over their male counterparts: Crystal Lily (2010), Overreach (2013), Mossfun (2014), She Will Reign (2017), Estijaab (2018), Kiamichi (2019) Fireburn (2022) and Lady Of Camelot (2024). In total, 30 fillies have triumphed in the Golden Slipper.
- In recent years, only Shinzo (2023), Kiamichi (2019), and Stratum (2005) have managed to win the Golden Slipper off a one-week backup since 2005.
- Additionally, several winners of the Blue Diamond Stakes have gone on to claim victory in the Golden Slipper, including John's Hope (1972), Manikato (1978), Bounding Away (1986), Courtza (1989), and Sepoy (2011).

Golden Slipper Favourites
The current Golden Slipper 2025 favourites can be seen at the top of the Odds comparison table above.You only need to look back to 2020 for the most recent winning favorite, when Farnan triumphed at odds of $4.0.
However, in the past 35 years, only Farnan, along with Vancouver ($2.50), Overreach ($2.80), Sepoy ($2.80), and Sebring ($6), have managed to fulfil punters' expectations by claiming victory in the Golden Slipper.
These five favourites in the Golden Slipper betting markets emerged victorious for punters between 2008 and 2024.
Despite favourites not boasting a stellar record, the historical trend suggests that the winning horse typically falls within single-figure odds, typically ranging from $5.50 to $8.00.

We'll advise you on the Golden Slipper 2025 scratchings when they're declared on the Saturday morning before the race.Scratchings are always a possibility in racing, no matter which race a horse is contesting, whether it be a Group 1 or BM58.
These scratchings can occur in the days leading up to a race, on race morning or even in the minutes before a race.
The trainer's decision on scratching a horse will often depend on several factors like the nature of the horse or the status of the track. Sometimes these scratchings can be tactical as well, with the trainer opting to run their horse in an easier event or a race where the barrier draw is more favourable to the horse.
If you've placed a Win/Place bet on horse in race (with TAB or another bookie) and your runner is scratched, you can get a refund equal to the value of your bet.
