About

Backrower is a 5-year-old bay gelding from Australia, trained by Michael Freedman at Randwick. He is the offspring of the stallion Astern and the mare Mignard.

His most notable victory occurred on August 30, 2022, at Newcastle, where he was ridden by Tommy Berry and won the $40,000 Class 1 Handicap, beating Wollombi. He has been a lucrative horse for bettors, providing a 6 percent return on investment for those who have backed him throughout his racing career.
