4YO reaching for the stars
Smart four-year-old Star Of The Seas continues to make impressive progress for champion trainer Chris Waller.
The Ocean Park gelding has won five of his 11 starts and he looks set to make his mark in stakes company.
Star of The Seas’ latest success came at Rosehill at the weekend when he successfully stepped up to 1500 metres for the first time.

Their dam is the English-bred mare Stella Livia and an internationally successful family.
It features the former German Horse of the Year Ransom O’War and Group One winner and emerging stallion Charm Spirit.
