About
Speycaster is a 7yo bay or brown gelding trained by Todd Pollard at Eagle Farm. He is by the stallion Highland Reel out of the mare Examinee. To date he has recorded seven wins. On 29 June 2024 at Rosehill Gardens he captured his biggest victory, winning the $160,000 3yo+ Benchmark 90 Handicap. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; a lifelong backer would see a 29% return on investment.
