About

Pier is a 6yo bay gelding trained by Darryn & Briar Weatherley in Matamata. He is by Proisir out of La Vitesse. With a Group One victory and career earnings of $891,203, he is considered an elite racehorse. On 5 Nov 2022 at Riccarton Park, Michael McNab rode Pier to his biggest win, capturing the $550,000 3yo Open Set Weight by beating Desert Lightning. He has been a rewarding prospect for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 27% return on investment.
