About
Rifleman is a 2yo chestnut gelding from Australia under trainer Daniel Morton at Ascot. His sire is Shooting to Win and his dam is Catherine Wheel. He has recorded one win so far. On 25 July 2026 at Belmont, he claimed his most important victory, taking the $80,000 2yo Plate. The horse has been a profitable choice for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 120% return on investment.
