About
Hoku is a 7yo bay gelding (male) from Australia trained by Les Roberts, who is based at Muswellbrook. He is sired by the stallion Zoustar out of the dam Rock the Moment. Hoku has managed to win 1 race in his career so far. On 14th Jun 2025 at Newcastle, Hoku scored his most significant win to date, getting the money in the $42000.00 Maiden Handicap. He has proven a profitable horse for the punters over the journey. If you had backed Hoku throughout his career you'd have achieved a 103% return on investment.
