About

Thebudgiesmugla is a 5yo bay or brown gelding (male) trained by Bjorn Baker at Warwick Farm. He is by the stallion Redwood out of the mare Hot Pants. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $342,724, he is considered a racehorse of above‑average ability. On 13 Jun 2026 at Rosehill Gardens, ridden by Dylan Gibbons, he secured his biggest victory to date by winning the $200,000 Winter Cup, beating Black Run. He has consistently delivered profit for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 147% return on investment.
