With one million dollars in purse money, the Whitney Stakes is one of the richest horse races in America this year. Add in the fact that it’s a “win and you’re in” qualifier for the Breeders Cup Classic and it’s no wonder that a very strong field of horses head to Saratoga each year to compete in the Whitney.
This year the field is very strong with ten horses entered, and several of the top horses in the world with a shot to win. Fierceness (9-5) is the favorite heading into the race, while Sierra Leone (2/1), Mindframe (5/2), and White Abarrio (4/1) are also right there as fellow top contenders.
In this article I will give you guys the morning line odds for the ten horses in the field, provide a value play that I think could hit and also give you a step by step guide to getting your bets in on the Whitney this Saturday.
The race will be broadcast on FOX from 3-6pm EST on Saturday, August 3rd, so place your bets, tune in, and watch the action.
2025 Whitney Stakes Betting Odds
Here are the morning line odds (and post positions) for the 10 horses competing in this years Whitney Stakes race. It’s important to remember that these odds will change throughout race day depending on the amount of money that is being bet on each horse. If a lot of money comes in on a horse the odds will shorten and vice versa.
- Mindframe 5-2
- Skippylongstocking 10-1
- Highland Falls 8-1
- Mama’s Gold 50-1
- Sierra Leone 2-1
- Disarm 15-1
- White Abarrio 4-1
- Contrary Thinking 50-1
- Fierceness 9-5
- Post Time 12-1
As you can see Fierceness is a significant favorite, while Sierra Leone, Mindframe, White Abarrio, and Highland Falls are the other contenders.
Here’s the video of Mindframe’s impressive win at the Stephen Foster Stakes this past month.
My Pick
I’m going with Mindframe at odds of 5-2. He’s coming off a win at the Stephen Foster Stakes where he ran extremely fast and held off Sierra Leone down the stretch. I think this win was more impressive than any of Fierceness’ wins. Add in the fact that Mindframe has won all three races he’s competed in this year and I think this horse has turned a corner and is a winner now who will increase his level based on the quality of the field.
Play: Mindframe 5-2
