About
Metalart, a 5yo brown gelding from Australia, is trained by Kelly Schweida at Eagle Farm. He is by Better Than Ready out of Exquisite Art. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $489,300, he is considered an above‑average racehorse. On 28 Jun 2025 at Eagle Farm, rider Jason Collett guided him to his biggest victory, the $200,000 Open Quality, beating Austmarr. He has consistently delivered profit to bettors, and backing him throughout his career would have yielded an 8% ROI.
