Escado
(AUS)About
Escado is a 15yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Matt Laurie. He is sired by the stallion Casino Prince out of the dam Secret Cause. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $843,120, Escado is considered a racehorse with above-average ability. On 20th Jun 2015 at Gold Coast, Escado, ridden by Ben Melham, achieved his most notable victory in the $200000 Carlton Draught Tattersall's Cup, defeating Shoreham. Throughout his career, Escado has been a profitable horse for bettors. Backing Escado throughout his career would have yielded a 136% return on investment. Escado has retired from racing, with his final race on 13th Oct 2016 at Moe.
