Sparks are set to fly when a star-studded field assembles at the Moonee Valley 1000m on Saturday for the 2024 Moir Stakes. Four Group 1 winners are in the field, while a string of up-and-coming sprinters are looking to set an early mark for the spring. Can the new-season three-year-olds stand up in weight-for-age company? Or will proven types like I Wish I Win or Chain Of Lightning exert their class?


2024 Moir Stakes odds

Estriella — the boom horse from Melbourne’s autumn carnival — heads up the Moir Stakes betting at $3.50, drifting slightly from the opening quote of $2.80 after drawing barrier eight. Golden Slipper winner Lady Of Camelot has been backed in from $5 to $3.80 after drawing well in barrier two, while proven Group 1 sprinter I Wish I Win at $5 is the only other runner in single figures with horse racing bookmakers. Three-year-old sprinters Coleman ($11) and Hayasugi ($15) are the best of the rest.


2024 Moir Stakes speed map

The Moir Stakes is often won within the first 100m. Lady of Camelot from barrier two looks to be the likely leader, with Caballus and Estriella needing to come from wide gates to land close to the speed. Mornington Glory and Coleman will likely lob just behind the leaders, with Johnny Rocker and Hayasugi settling midfield with a touch of cover. Peter Moody & Katherine Coleman duo I Wish I Win and Chain Of Lightning will likely be run off their feet early, but both will be charging home late.

Moir Stakes 2024 preview & form

Lady Of Camelot has never run a bad race in her life, and in her first start as a three-year-old, the reigning Golden Slipper (1200m) champion is going to take some catching. With just 50kg on her back under Zac Lloyd, the pair’s chances were handed a massive boost when drawing barrier two while other likely speed influences drawn out on the track. She was grabbed on the line in a hotly run Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m) to suggest if she goes quickly in the first half of the race, she can keep bobbing late inside the final 100m.

With all bar Mornington Glory coming to the Moir first-up, a fitness edge could prove beneficial for Gavin Bedggood’s in-form sprinter. The son of Shalaa was a handy winner in Listed grade last time out after being forced to travel three wide at this course and trip. Gate one is key to his chances, considering he lacks a bit of class on his rivals, but on the back of a breakneck speed, Mornington Glory will get his opportunity to pounce.

Estriella may finish the spring as one of the best sprinters in the country, but the wide draw at the Moonee Valley 1000m first-up has to be a concern. She dominated against her own age group throughout the autumn before a somewhat disappointing run against the older girls in the Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m). Blake Shinn will likely get caught three wide from barrier eight, but she might just prove too good for her rivals.

Hayasugi, I Wish I Win and Chain Of Lightning will all be launching late, with the unique surroundings potentially bringing them undone over the 1000m. Still, any one of those winning would not shock.
