By the Group 1-winning stallion Awesome Rock and out of the city-winning Showcasing mare Presentatie, this 3yo gelding has been described by his trainer as “a ripper,” and he’s already turning heads at every stage of his development.
Awesome Rock was a superstar on the track, his crowning moment being his dominant win in the Group 1 Emirates Stakes at Flemington during the iconic Spring Carnival of 2016. With over $2 million in prize money, three stakes wins, and the title of Australia’s highest-earning son of Fastnet Rock, his racing achievements were remarkable. Now standing at stud in Western Australia, Awesome Rock has proven his worth as a sire with classy progeny, including:
- Searchin’ Rocks: Champion sprinter with six stakes wins.
- Awesome John: Group 2 WA Derby winner.
- Own The Queen: Triple stakes-winning filly and WA Oaks winner.
- Plus, more stakes winners like Red Sun Sation and Rokanori, alongside 57+ individual winners to date from less than 100 to race!
This gelding’s dam, Presentatie, was a four-time winner across New Zealand and Western Australia and hails from a family with plenty of stakes success as you can see from her pedigree page.
