About
Zou Sensation is a 7yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Leon & Troy Corstens & Will Larkin. He is by Zoustar out of Dame Claire. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $1,066,400, he is considered an above‑average racehorse. On 11 Oct 2025 at Caulfield, ridden by Ben Allen, he secured his biggest victory in the $200,000 Weekend Hussler Stakes, beating King Zephyr. He has consistently delivered profit for bettors, and a career‑long backing would have yielded a 30% return on investment.
