Contested over 1600m the open quality event for fillies and mares aged three-years-old and above offers $250,000 in prize money as of 2024 and is run on the same day as the Group 1 $1 million Randwick Guineas (1600m).
Other feature races on the Randwick Guineas Day program include the Group 1 Canterbury Stakes (1300m), Group 2 Challenge Stakes (1000m), Group 2 Reisling Stakes (1200m), Group 2 Todman Stakes (1200m), and the Group 3 Wenona Girl Quality (1200m).
Runners in the Aspiration Quality field may come off a lead-up autumn run in an easier race and could be eyeing a run in the Group 1 Queen Of The Turf Stakes (1600m) back at Randwick in April during The Championships. Between the Aspiration Quality and the Queen Of The Turf Stakes many mares also run in the Group 3 Epona Stakes (1900m) at Rosehill.
In 2020 Nettoyer successfully defended her Aspiration Quality title before backing-up to take out the Group 1 Doncaster Mile (1600m).
The 2021 Aspiration Quality form was franked with the runner-up She’s Ideel also finishing second in that year’s Group 1 Tancred Stakes, third in the Group 1 Winx Stakes that spring and second in the 2022 Group 1 Chipping Norton Stakes the following year.
The Aspiration Quality 2025 ran at Randwick Racecourse on Saturday March 8, 2025 and saw Little Baia ($9.50) salute in a gutsy front-running upset defeating Mare Of Mt Buller.Â

2025 Aspiration Quality Tips
Stay tuned for our insider Aspiration Quality 2025 Tips on the Randwick Group 3 event this season.
- To Win: #3 Mare Of Mt Buller ($4 at time of publish) – BET NOW
Her former Group 1 winning stablemate is better fancied but with 61kg I think Hinged might be out of this. Mare Of Mt Buller then looks value for the Waller stable in the Aspiration Quality with the nicely bred four-year-old daughter of Dundeel in on 54kg with Jason Collett riding. She was competitive running fifth in last year’s Queensland Oaks at elite level in Brisbane and is second-up for this prep. Fresh she ran a solid enough third with more weight over the Randwick mile on February 8. Has been a long time between wins with her latest being in February last year, but she looks very well placed to break the drought here.
