Hoba West (AUS) Horse
About
Hoba West is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Summer Dickson of Port Kennedy. He is by Epaulette out of Hoba. So far, he has recorded five victories. On 13 Dec 2025 at Ascot, Hoba West secured his most important win, taking the $80,000 Rtg 65+ Handicap. He has proved a profitable runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 74% return on investment.
