About
Zulfiqar is a 5yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Richard Litt of Warwick Farm. He is by Exceed And Excel out of Sayf Shamal. As a stakes winner with total earnings of $346,715, he is seen as possessing above‑average talent. On 4 Feb 2023 at Sandown Hillside, Ben Melham rode him to his biggest victory, capturing the $200,000 Chairman’s Stakes over Veecee. The horse has been a consistent money‑maker for bettors, delivering a 57% ROI for anyone who backed him from the start.
