Originally set to be a stand-alone event, the 2025 Queensland Oaks will now take place with the Kingsford-Smith Cup and Queensland Derby. This prestigious 2200m race, featuring top fillies from around the world, boasts a rich history of celebrated winners. Leading the betting market is Philia, with Benagil and Jenni's Meadow as strong contenders. Benagil, despite a previous setback, remains a class act, while Jenni's Meadow shows promise with strategic preparation. She's A Dealer presents value, with potential for a strong performance over extended distance.

2025 Queensland Oaks Tips


2025 Queensland Oaks Best Bet - Benagil

She was well-held last start as a beaten fav in The Roses, but there were obvious excuses in that main lead-up event to the Queensland Oaks.

Benagil was a month between run on May 24 and runs never came when she needed them, with tired horses falling into her lap at key stages in the straight.

Prior to her Adelaide success, Benagil was runner-up behind a smart Treaurethe Moment and the form has already been franked from the Australasian Oaks.

She's now deep into the campaign, which is the main knock, but it has been somewhat spaced-out and Benagil is still the class runner of the field.
2025 Queensland Oaks Next Best Bet - Jenni's Meadow

The Hayes yard have timed the prep perfectly with Jenni's Meadow, who will contest the Queensland Oaks fourth-up off a flashing light run in The Roses.

Jenni's Meadow has improved with every run this time in and after settling back from a wide draw, the three-year-old was hard to miss a fortnight ago.

With a Queensland run under the belt and with that last performance coming over 2000m, there's platform to progress further in this Group 1 assignment.

After drawing out in her last two outings, there's more options this time around for Jenni's Meadow, as Ethan Brown now has gate one at his disposal.
2025 Queensland Oaks Value Bet - She's A Dealer

We have to respect the James & Wellwood stable, a New Zealand yard who had Australian success in recent years through Orchestral, Prowess and Mark Twain.

She's A Dealer briefly loomed as a threat in her Down Under debut at Randwick before She's Fly kicked clear and opened a margin on wet ground.

This filly wouldn't have been screwed down for that Sydney outing, where she was a month between runs after recording two victories in April..

Being by Ace High and out of a stakes-winning Pentire mare, She's A Dealer is bred to eat up the extra trip and she could spike in her first try at 2000m+.
