About
Castle Road is a 3yo chestnut gelding from Australia, trained by Paul Jordan at Ascot. He is out of the mare Clarecastle and by the stallion Safeguard. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $458,370, he is considered a horse of above‑average ability. On 12 Apr 2025 at Ascot, ridden by Craig Staples, he secured his biggest victory to date in the $200000.00 2yo C&G Open Set Weight With Penalties, beating Just Too Fly. He has consistently delivered profit for bettors, and backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 10% ROI.
