About

West Star is a 3-year-old bay gelding from Australia trained by Simon Miller. He is sired by Playing God out of Jester Derriere. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $719,520, West Star is considered above-average in ability. On May 11, 2025, he won his most significant race to date at Northam, ridden by Lucy F Fiore. He secured victory in the $200,000 2yo+ Open Set Weight With Penalties, defeating Magnificent Andy. West Star has been a profitable horse for punters throughout his career. Backing him consistently would have yielded an 11% return on investment.
