About
Wanaruah, a 5yo bay stallion from Australia, is trained by Brett & Georgie Cavanough in Scone. He is by Snitzel out of Mella Maria. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $441,350, he is considered a horse of above‑average ability. On 6 June 2026 at Randwick, jockey Kerrin McEvoy guided Wanaruah to his biggest triumph, capturing the $200,000 Bob Charley Ao Stakes over General Salute. He has consistently delivered value for bettors, and backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 55% return on investment.
