[3] The race for the 1000 Guineas Stakes over the same course and distance two weeks later was scarcely more competitive, with only three fillies appearing to oppose Galata, who was made favourite at odds of 1/2.
She was made 9/4 second favourite behind Kate, a filly who had won two races at Newmarket in spring before finishing unplaced in the Epsom Derby a day before the Oaks.
Ridden by the Irish jockey Patrick Conolly, Galata took a clear lead from the start and after being briefly challenged by the outsider Lady Fly, drew away to win by two lengths, with Eleanor third and Kate unplaced.
[5] Following her win in the Oaks, Galata was described by the Sporting Magazine as being "as fine a racing-like animal as ever imprinted foot on Epsom Downs, and her action may be taken for an example to the end of time".
[6] Two weeks after her Epsom success, Galata was brought back in distance for the Windsor Forest Stakes over one mile at Ascot Racecourse and won by at least four lengths[7] from her only opponent, a filly named Whimsey, who was carrying five pounds less weight.
[8] After a break of three and a half months, Galata returned to racing in the Grand Duke Michael Stakes over ten furlongs at Newmarket on 1 October.
[10] On this occasion she led from the start and won by three lengths, leading the Sporting Magazine to observe that Galata was most effective when allowed to run her own race as "any attempt to controul her defeats her altogether".
