About
Royal Flare, a 4yo bay/brown gelding from Australia, is trained by Brendan McCarthy. He is by Zoustar out of Our Crown Mistress. To date he has won two races. His biggest victory came on 3 Nov 2025 at Ballarat, where he captured the $65,000 3‑4‑5‑year-old Maiden Plate. Punters have found him profitable; a career‑long backing would have yielded a 1% ROI.
