About
Tara's Reward is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia under the training of Jack Bruce. He is by Reward for Effort out of Raise the Roof and has recorded two career victories. On 14 Dec 2025 at Sunshine Coast, he secured his most important win, taking the $30,000 C,G&E Maiden Plate. He has been a profitable runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 54% return on investment.
