About

Smart Star is a 7yo bay gelding (male) from Australia trained by David Kok, who is based at Singapore. He is sired by the stallion Star Witness out of the dam Power Ahead. Given that he has won at Group One level and has amassed $1,151,980 in career earnings, Smart Star is regarded as an elite class of racehorse. On 5th Oct 2024 at Singapore, Smart Star was ridden by M Yeni and scored his most significant win to date, getting the money in the $1380000.00 3yo+ Open Handicap, defeating Lim's Saltoro. He has proven a profitable horse for the punters over the journey. If you had backed Smart Star throughout his career you'd have achieved a 304% return on investment.
