About
Cheeky Smirk, a 3yo bay gelding from Australia, is prepared by trainers Gerald Ryan and Sterling Alexiou at Rosehill. He is by All Too Hard out of Blush And Smile. He has secured one win so far. His most notable victory arrived on 20 Jul 2025 at Hawkesbury, where he claimed the $42,000 Ch&g Maiden Set Weight. He has proved profitable for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 100% return on investment.
