About

Goldrush Guru, a 4yo bay gelding from Australia, is under the care of trainer Andrew Gluyas at Morphettville. He is by American Pharoah out of Glam Guru. With a Group One victory and career earnings of $1,662,310, he is considered an elite racehorse. On 2nd Nov 2024 at Flemington, ridden by Jamie Melham, he captured his biggest triumph in the $2,000,000 3yo Open Set Weight, beating Scary. Throughout his career he has been a profitable choice for bettors; backing him from the start would have yielded a 2% ROI.
