About
Zarastro is a 7yo bay or brown gelding from Australia, trained by Tony Gollan at Eagle Farm. His sire is I Am Invincible and his dam is Adrift. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $1,537,016, he is considered a horse of above‑average ability. On 29 June 2024 at Eagle Farm, ridden by Angela Jones, he secured his biggest victory to date by winning the $200,000 Open Quality, beating Ghaanati. He has consistently been a profitable prospect for bettors, delivering roughly a 20% return on investment for those who have backed him throughout his career.
