About
News Travels Fast, a 5yo bay gelding from Australia, is trained by David & Coral Feek in Mornington. He is by the stallion Squamosa out of the mare Spring Fantasy. To date he has recorded one victory, which came on 18 Jan 2026 at Stony Creek when he captured the $32,000 Maiden Plate, his most notable win. The horse has been a profitable option for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 30% return on investment.
