About

Cuesta is a 4yo bay mare from New Zealand, trained by Bjorn Baker located at Warwick Farm. She is the offspring of the stallion El Roca and the dam Maenoha. Cuesta has yet to secure a maiden victory, having started 5 times without success. In her most recent outing at Bathurst on June 19, 2025, Cuesta was ridden by Robbie P. Downey and finished 2nd, just behind Lady Felina.
