(AUS)About
Absalon, a 16-year-old bay gelding from Australia, is trained by Shane Marr and is based at Warwick Farm. He is sired by Mossman out of Danish Seaway. Having won stakes and earned $256,180, Absalon is considered a horse with above-average ability. On November 30, 2013, at Doomben, he was ridden by Larry Cassidy and won his most significant race, securing $80,000 in an Hcp and defeating Fillydelphia. He has been a profitable horse for bettors, yielding a 14% return on investment over his career. Absalon concluded his racing career on March 9, 2016, running his last race at Warwick Farm.
