About

Stay Focused is a 4yo bay gelding (male) from Australia trained by Phillip Stokes, who is based at Pakenham OC. He is sired by the stallion Cosmic Force out of the dam Coral Reef. Given that he is a stakes winner and has amassed $411,500 in career earnings, Stay Focused is regarded as a racehorse with above-average ability. On 5th Apr 2025 at Morphettville Parks, Stay Focused was ridden by Lachlan Neindorf and scored his most significant win to date, getting the money in the $120000.00 3yo Open Set Weight With Penalties, defeating On Display.
