Celestial Legend is one of the most exciting horses in Australia heading into the 2024 spring, with the now four-year-old having rounded out his last campaign with a winning hat-trick and the final two victories were recorded at Group 1 level over the Randwick mile.

The Golden Eagle looks a logical target for the son of Dundeel, however, that four-year-old feature is contested in early November and so a path through the Epsom Handicap is an option.

Another Wil ($9) was a beaten favourite in the Doncaster Mile (which was won by Celestial Legend), where he had to settle for a seventh-of-nineteen finish after failing to handle a seven day back-up.
His form prior to that April 6 outing was terrific, with four wins on the trot to open his second campaign and all five of his career victories have been by decent margins (2.2 lengths is the narrowest).
Chris Waller prepares both Fangirl and Scarlet Oak (both $13) and after failing to stay in the Queensland Oaks, this 1600m handicap looks a logical target for Scarlet Oak, whereas Fangirl is likely to go on a WFA path.

Epsom Handicap Winners
The Epsom Handicap is one of Sydney's top spring races, with over 150 years of history and has been over the mile journey for the majority of its lifetime, despite a brief period of five years where the Epsom was run at 1800m.
Named in honour of the famous Epsom Downs racecourse in England, this mile feature has seen the best of the best taking out the prize including Super Impose, Sky High, Imposing, Winx, and Nightmarch.
Private Eye (2021), Ellsberg/Top Ranked (dead heat - 2022) and Rediener (2023) have won the last three editions of the Epsom Handicap.
