Although he has won four Golden Slippers, trainer Clarry Conners knows all too well just how hard it is to even get into the race.

Early in the season the Warwick Farm trainer had high hopes Aegean Sea would be the one to give him a fifth win in the $3.5 million Slipper.

But the filly, who won her first start in November, suffered a leg injury a couple of weeks later forcing a six-month time-out.

Conners is now setting his sights on Look To The Stars to push her way into the field via Saturday's Magic Night Stakes at Rosehill, a week before the Slipper.

Her stablemate Mowgli will also run in the Magic Night and is likely to head to the Sires' Produce Stakes.

"The two fillies will run in the Magic Night and we will see how they go," Conners said.

"Look To The Stars might go to the Slipper if she goes well but the other one won't go there."

Look To The Stars broke her maiden at her fourth start at Warwick Farm last week.

She has been placed twice including a second to Perignon who is also set to back up in the Magic Night from an unlucky run in Saturday's Reisling Stakes.

Perignon's trainer Gerald Ryan is likely to have at least one Slipper runner with Fireworks' owner John Camilleri keen to pay the $150,000 late entry fee to put the Widden Stakes winner in the field.

The trainer has a dilemma with Perignon who would have to run three weeks in a row if the owners decide to run in the Magic Night and the Slipper.

"We are also looking at the Sires' two weeks after the Slipper," Ryan said.

"I don't have any worries about backing her up. She has done it before but it's just a question of whether we want to go to the Slipper or the Sires."
