About

Room For Squares is a 5yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Jason Babarovich in Townsville. He is by Rubick out of Fimatino and has accumulated seven victories. On 20 Apr 2025 at Mount Isa he captured the $15000.00 Benchmark 70 Handicap, his most important win to date. The horse has delivered solid returns for bettors, providing about a 30% profit if he had been backed throughout his career.
