About

Constellation is a 4yo colt trained by Mike/Mathe Kock. He is by What A Winter out of Star Burst Galaxy. So far he has won four races. On 27 Dec 2025 at Turffontein he captured his biggest victory, taking the $142504.00 Sophomore 1000 for 3-year-olds. The horse has been a profitable choice for bettors; a career‑long backing would have produced a 12% return on investment.
