Distant Sky
About
Distant Sky is a 13yo chestnut gelding trained by Nigel Blackiston, based at Ballarat. He is sired by Starcraft out of More Than Adequate. Distant Sky has won 4 races in his career, with his most notable victory occurring on 27th Mar 2018 at Sportsbet-Ballarat in the $25000 Bm64 Hcp. A profitable horse for punters, backing Distant Sky throughout his career would have resulted in a 12% return on investment. Distant Sky retired from racing on 28th May 2019 following his last run at Hamilton.
