The 4-year-old Starlink is a closer who tends to leave it late. She won a seven-furlong handicap at Bathurst on May 25, rallying from sixth in a field of seven on the rail to prevail by less than a half-length.
Yankees will have her 2023 debut in a five-furlong handicap at Gosford Racecourse on Wednesday. Her chances would seem dim were it not for her debut win last May and a first-place finish in a schooling race from the gate, or barrier trial, at five furlongs at Hawkesbury on May 22.
Flashing Steel has shown a consistent style in handicap races in Australia in recent months. More often than not, the three-time winner is part of the pace. The tactic worked in a handicap for males at 7 3/4 furlongs at Canterbury Park in Sydney on May 24, and can be effective again in a race against open company at the same distance at Canterbury on Tuesday evening.

For a maiden race winner, Miss Thatcher carries a lofty reputation in advance of her first start of 2023 in a six-furlong handicap at Goulburn Racecourse in Australia on Sunday evening.
