2021 Surround Stakes Horses

1 MONTEFILIA $11
The David Payne-trained galloper resumes after running 3rd in the VRC Oaks (2500m) in the spring and may need the run but wasn’t far away from them in the Tea Rose Stakes (1400m) earlier on at her last preparation before taking out the Flight Stakes (1600m). With a solid tempo or better, she can run on into the top three.

2. AWAY GAME $9
The consistent filly has placed 3rd at her past two and missed out behind Aim in the Magic Millions 3YO Guineas (1400m) before chasing well behind Every Rose in the Light Fingers Stakes (1200m). 10 of this year’s field come out of that lead up and on that run, she is right in contention.

3. DAME GISELLE $4.80
Dame Giselle comes out of the Inglis 3YO Sprint and was behind Rocketing By that day. She went seven lengths faster than standard in that race and at her second run last time she took out the Furious Stakes before knocking over a number of these when winning the Tea Rose Stakes at the track and trip. She looks well suited and is a clear top three prospect.

SURROUND STAKES HISTORY

The Surround Stakes (1400m) takes place at Royal Randwick Racecourse annually in late February or early March during the Sydney Autumn Carnival and is run at set weights conditions for three-year-old fillies.

Named after 1976–1977 Australian Champion Racehorse of the Year, Surround is the only three-year-old filly in history to win the Cox Plate.

First run in 1979 and won by Impede as a Group 3 race, the Surround Stakes took on Group 2 status in 1986 and will be elevated to a Group 1 for the 2018 renewal.

Other races on the day include: Group 1 Chipping Norton Stakes (1600m), Group 2 Guy Walter Stakes (1400m), Group 2 Sweet Embrace Stakes (1200m), Group 2 Skyline Stakes (1200m) and Group 3 Liverpool City Cup (1300m).

The honour roll includes top racehorses such as Skating (1993), Gold Edition (2007), More Joyous (2010), Streama (2012), Dear Demi (2013), First Seal (2015) and Shoals (2018).

The Group 2 Light Fingers Stakes (1200m) is regarded as one of the traditional lead-ups to the Surround Stakes, while competitors in the Surround are likely to push on to Group 3 Keith F Nolan Classic (1600m) at Kembla Grange two weeks later.
