About
Auto Cruise is a 4yo chestnut mare from Australia trained by Holly Taylor at Forrestdale. She is by A Lot out of Cruisey Bek. She has won four races in her career. On 20th Dec 2025 at Ascot she claimed the $125,000 Westspeed Platinum Mile, her most important win to date. She has been a profitable runner for punters; backing her throughout her career would have delivered a 157% return on investment.
