Starlight Stakes 2024 Preview
Track: Good 4 Weather: Overcast
Front Page is ready to win and can break through for the first time this prep. This race suits and expect Tim Clark to adopt on speed tactics and prove hard to run down. Jedibeel will need luck from the wide draw but has the talent and should
give this race a shake. Our Kobison has the class to take this out while Pereille is hard to catch but suited to this field and will take beating against these.
