About
Big Sky is a 3yo brown colt from Australia, trained by Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr in Cranbourne. He is by the stallion Bivouac out of the mare Zoom By. Having secured a stakes victory and accumulated $228,100 in earnings, he is considered an above‑average racehorse. On 31st Jan 2026 at Caulfield, Ben Melham rode him to his most important win, capturing the $200,000 Chairman's Stakes over Invincible Son. The horse has been a profitable choice for bettors, delivering a 13% return on investment for those who backed him throughout his career.
