About

Gobstopper, a 13-year-old bay gelding, is trained by Eric Musgrove of Cranbourne. He was sired by Tavistock and is out of the dam Bagalollies. With a career tally of $556,537 and stakes-winning status, Gobstopper is highly regarded. His most notable win was on 18th Nov 2017 at Riccarton Park, ridden by Sam Spratt, triumphing in the $250,000 Christchurch Casino NZ Cup, beating Pentathlon. Backing Gobstopper throughout his career would have yielded a 230% return on investment. Gobstopper's last race was on 18th Apr 2022 at Sportsbet-Pakenham, marking the end of his racing career.
