About
State In Texas, a 4yo bay gelding from Australia, is trained by Jimmy Downes in Beaudesert. He is by Star Turn out of Amarillo. To date he has recorded five career victories. His most notable triumph came on 31 Jan 2026 at Ipswich, where he captured the $28,000 Bm65 Hcp. Punters have found him to be a value bet; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 6% ROI.
