About

King Of Pop is a 3yo bay colt from Australia trained by G Ryan & S Alexiou at Rosehill. He is by Farnan out of Za Zi Ba. As a stakes winner with $216,400 in career earnings, he is regarded as a horse of above‑average ability. On 9 Mar 2025 at Canberra, ridden by Zac Lloyd, he secured his biggest win in the $200,000 Open Set Weight With Penalties, defeating Farcited. He has been a profitable runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 66% return on investment.
