About
Speycaster is a 7yo bay or brown gelding trained by Todd Pollard at Eagle Farm. He descends from stallion Highland Reel and out-of dam Examinee. To date he has collected seven victories. His biggest triumph came on 29th Jun 2024 at Rosehill Gardens, where he won the $160000.00 3yo+ Benchmark 90 Handicap. Punters have found him to be a money‑maker, and backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 32% ROI.
