About
Instigator is a 12yo bay gelding trained by Aaron Purcell in Warrnambool. He is by Nayef out of the mare Imagery. He has won 6 races so far. On 23rd Aug 2020 at Ballarat he secured his most important victory, the $125,000 J.J. Houlahan Hurdle. The horse has proved a profitable choice for punters; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 66% return on investment.
