Free Beer (AUS) Horse
About
Free Beer is a 5yo bay or brown gelding from Australia, trained by Justin Pickering of Murray Bridge. He is by Astern out of Wyuna. So far he has recorded six wins. On 20 Sep 2025 at Morphettville Parks he earned his most important triumph, collecting the $50,000 Restricted 64 Handicap. The horse has proved lucrative for punters; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 254% return on investment.
