In a competitive market with Unibet Australia, Attrition is a $4.60 favourite to win the 2024 Northerly Stakes and the five-year-old does bring some handy form lines from the east.

The Group 1 Toorak Handicap victory in 2023 is starting to read superbly given the subsequent performances from Antino (runner-up) and the Queenland-based galloper is among the early market elects for the Hong Kong Mile on December 8.

Attrition has found his touch as this season has worn on, with the Mitchell Freedman-trained entire winning the Group 2 Hill Stakes at Rosehill after contesting a hot form race at Moonee Valley (Feehan Stakes) and he was unlucky following that when fourth-of-eleven in the Five Diamonds.

Three-year-old fillies have won four of the last nine editions of the Northerly Stakes, which bodes well for Storyville ($4.80) who has been a big firmer in this Group 1 following her WA Guineas triumph on November 23.

Storyville carries just 50kg and William Pike has this key Group 1 engagement, with 'The Wizard' searching for his third win in the Northerly Stakes.

Northerly Stakes Winners


A Group 1 that has had many name changes, it will be best known to punters as the Kingston Town Classic (2007-2021) before the recent change, which was named after nine-time Group 1 winner Northerly, who is arguably the best horse ever produced from Western Australia.

An 1800m event run under weight-for-age conditions, this race has launched the career of many great horses, while it has also seen many established and famous gallopers triumph, including champions in Kingston Town, Vo Rogue and Better Loosen Up.

Regal Power (2021), Amelia's Jewel (2022) and Dom To Shoot (2023) have won the last three editions of the Northerly Stakes.
