About
Blackthorn, a 3yo chestnut gelding from Australia, is trained by Fred Wieland in Cairns. He is by The Autumn Sun out of Plum Stone. To date he has claimed two victories, the most notable being the $30,000 Country Boosted Maiden Plate at Muswellbrook on 13 Jan 2026. Punters have found him lucrative; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 309% ROI.
