About

The Spirit Of Zero is a 5yo bay gelding (male) from Australia trained by Yassy Nishitani, who is based at Spreyton. He is sired by the stallion Needs Further out of the dam Fuji Spirit. Given that he is a stakes winner and has amassed $215,810 in career earnings, The Spirit Of Zero is regarded as a racehorse with above-average ability. On 5th Feb 2023 at Launceston, The Spirit Of Zero was ridden by Ismail Toker and scored his most significant win to date, getting the money in the $150000.00 Open Set Weight, defeating Needs Sugar. He has proven a profitable horse for the punters over the journey. If you had backed The Spirit Of Zero throughout his career you'd have achieved a 36% return on investment.
