The All-Star Mile is an Australian thoroughbred horse race run over 1,600 metres that is rotated between Flemington Racecourse, Caulfield Racecourse and The Valley in Melbourne, Australia in March each year. It was run for the first time in 2019 and is run under Weight for Age conditions for open class horses. [1]

In the initial years the public voted to determining most of the field that competes in the race each year. Owners and trainers had to nominate their horses in January and then the public voted for which horses should be in the starting line up.[2]

From 2024 the selection of the All-Star Mile field became a mixture of ‘Win and You're In' races and wildcards with a maximum field of 16 starters.[3] The eight races where the winner can gain automatic entry are:
