About

Abdicator, a 10-year-old bay gelding from Australia, is trained by Darren McAuliffe. He is the offspring of stallion Universal Ruler and dam Royal Escapade. Known for his stake-winning ability, Abdicator has earned $500,340 in his career. His most notable victory was on March 21, 2018, at Bunbury, where he won the $100,000 Rangeview Stud Classic under jockey Daniel Staeck, defeating Fine Scent. Abdicator has since retired from racing, with his last race being on January 23, 2021, at Ascot.
