About

Gorgeous Gus is a 10yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Sean & Jake Casey at Bullsbrook. He is by Universal Ruler out of Terminado and has secured three wins so far. His top performance came on 4 Aug 2021 at Belmont, where he captured the $20,000 Maiden. The horse has proved rewarding for bettors, offering roughly a 50% return on investment for anyone who backed him throughout his career.
