Christmas Stakes 2024 Preview
Track: Good 4 Weather:
Mrs Chrissie resumed with a strong win. She can go right on with it here. It’sourtime won’t be far away and is suited to this field. Ashford Street hasn’t won for a while but can be around the mark in this. Semillion maps well from the draw and has been good first up in the past. Major chance.
