This has been a profitable post-Christmas period for the Australian filly Lady Laguna, who will start favored in the Group 3 Southern Cross Stakes at six furlongs at Rosehill Gardens Racecourse in Sydney on Friday evening.

Lady Laguna ended a three-race losing streak with a come-from-behind win in the $136,200 Nudgee Stakes at six furlongs at Doomben Racecourse on Dec. 30, and followed with the richest win of her career in the $668,500 Magic Millions Fillies and Mares Stakes at 6 1/2 furlongs at Gold Coast on Jan. 13.

SHA TIN SELECTIONS

Karis Teetan believes Star Mac can measure up in the HK$13 million Hong Kong Classic Mile (1600m) this Sunday (4 February) at Sha Tin.

The lowest rated runner in the race on 64 and without a win from four starts in Hong Kong, Star Mac has the joint-least experience among the entries, however, continues to showcase an electrifying late burst which has returned two fast-finishing third placings in Class 3.
