About
Ambushed is a 4yo bay or brown mare from Australia, trained by Craig Stewart in Millicent. She is by Sharkbite out of Fox On the Run. So far she has won one race. On 8 February 2026 at Naracoorte she secured her biggest win, the $19,500 3-up Maiden Plate. She has proven a profitable runner for bettors; backing her throughout her career would have delivered a 50% return on investment.
