Trained by Symon Wilde, the three year-old gelding was fancied to run well and forged clear to win the 1200m maiden by a length.
 

Bred by Noorilim Park Thoroughbreds, Shuriken runs for a big group of owners and is the fifth winner from Petroica, a half-sister by Anabaa (USA) to Mustaagel from Group II winner Frenetic.

He is the first winner for Tosen Stardom, who was an outstanding miler winning the Group I VRC Emirates Stakes and MRC Toorak Handicap.

He stands at Woodside Park at a fee of $7,700.
