About

West Star, a four-year-old dark bay or brown colt, was bred in the United States and is currently trained by Antonio Machado. Sired by Candy Ride and out of the dam Highway Star, West Star has secured two victories in its racing career.

Its most notable win occurred on February 16, 2024, at Laurel Park, where jockey Jeiron Barbosa rode West Star to victory in the $12,600 Claiming race, beating out Shouldhavebeengone.

West Star has been a profitable investment for bettors, yielding a 15 percent return on investment for those who have consistently backed the horse.
