About
Texas is a 6yo bay or brown gelding (male) trained by Kevin Myers in Wanganui. He is by the stallion Rubick out of the dam Testadrop. So far he has notched eight wins. On 6th Sep 2025 at Ellerslie, Texas earned his most important victory, claiming the $75,000 Benchmark 65 Handicap. He has been a profitable runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 22% return on investment.
