(Brett Holburt/Racing Photos) Ascot-based trainer Dan Morton is hopeful that his five-time stakes-winning mare Super Smink can secure a spot in next month’s Group 1 All-Star Mile (1600m) at Flemington on March 8. The daughter of Super One will race at Caulfield on Saturday in the Group 1 CF Orr Stakes (1400m), aiming to impress the selection panel for a potential wildcard entry. “We’re here to get into the All-Star Mile. That’s where we want to be,” Morton told Racing.com. “I’m really looking forward to seeing what she can do. I’m under no illusions it’s a huge step for her. “I wouldn’t be bringing her unless I thought she would be hugely competitive. She’s a high-class mare and she has been from the get-go. There’s a lot to like about her as she’s only four and she’s really developing into a strong mare. “I wouldn’t be bringing her unless I thought she was going to be competitive. We’ve been excited about her work; she’s coming up beautifully towards this race. “She had a small freshen-up after her campaign and then got going. She’s taking good fitness into the race.” Super Smink is currently a $17 chance for Saturday’s CF Orr Stakes with horse racing bookmakers.
