About

Distrustful Award is a 6yo brown gelding from Australia trained by Peter Luttrell at Longford. He is by Shamus Award out of Distrustful. As a stakes winner with $269,050 in earnings, he is considered an above‑average racehorse. On 26 Feb 2025 at Launceston, Anthony Darmanin rode him to his biggest victory, taking the $250,000 Open Handicap over Promises Kept. Throughout his career he has been a money‑maker for bettors; a full‑career backing would have yielded a 53% ROI.
