About

**The Weapon** is a 5-year-old bay gelding trained by L & A O'Sullivan & Scott. He hails from Matamata and was sired by the stallion Shocking out of the dam Berzallia. The Weapon has claimed victory in two races during his career so far. His most notable win came on 29th March 2025 at Te Aroha, where he secured the top prize in the $40,000 Benchmark 65 Handicap. Over time, backing The Weapon has proven to be profitable for punters, with a 17% return on investment for those who supported him throughout his career.
