The Norfolk Stakes is a Group 2 race for two year old colts and fillies. It is run over a distance of 5F and is the first race on day 3 of Royal Ascot. Established in 1843 it is a ‘win and you’re in’ qualifier for the Breeders Cup Juvenile Sprint later in the year. It takes a smart speedy juvenile to win.
First run in 1843 this is the meeting’s third Group 2 race for two year olds following the Coventry and Queen Mary with its distinguishing feature being that it is open to both sexes over the minimum trip.
Most winners have not been highly tried, often running at mid-ranking tracks. Eleven of the last 25 winners had won their only start with their connections happy they had done enough before Ascot (another was unbeaten in three starts).

Norfolk Stakes Tips
Norfolk Stakes History & Past Winners
Irish handler Aidan O’Brien and American trainer Wesley Ward have both won this race twice in the last ten years along with Richard Fahey who’s taken the last two renewals with Perfect Power (14/1) and The Ridler (50/1).
Only six (including the last two) went off bigger than 10/1 although favourites have a pretty poor record with the last ten finishing 2535200042.
Some interesting key trends are that 9 of the last winners had finished in the top three on their previous run whilst 4 of the last 10 winners were once raced winners. The other six were all beaten on their debuts.
Seven fillies have run in the last decade finishing 3990156.
