The Aurie's Star Handicap is a more than handy sprint race to bring in the new racing season and quite often provides a starting point for many of our better sprinters on their way to a spring campaign in Melbourne.

Raced down the Flemington 1200 metre 'Straight Course', the Aurie's Star Handicap suits those horses with previous experience down the Flemington straight or any horse who prefers straight racing rather than around turns.

The 2009 Aurie's Star Handicap proved a pivotal one for the spring as Mic Mac (2009) went on to win the Gr 2 Memsie Stakes after winning this race and he then ran multiple placings in a number of good quality races during the spring carnival.

All American (2nd in 2009) ran second in the Aurie's Star Handicap before going on to finish runner-up in the Gr2 Waterford Mile at Moonee Valley and then came out and won the Gr1 Emirates Stakes on the final day of the Flemington carnival.

Temple of Boom (2011) finished unplaced in the listed Ramornie Handicap over 1200m at Grafton prior to success in this event and recent Aurie's Star Handicap winners include Elusive Touch (2010) and Mic Mac (2009).
