Buffering
(AUS)About
Buffering is a 17yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Robert Heathcote. He is sired by the stallion Mossman out of the dam Action Annie. Having won at Group One level and earned $7,153,194 throughout his career, Buffering is considered an elite racehorse. On March 26, 2016, in Dubai, Buffering, ridden by Damian Browne, achieved his most notable victory, winning the $1,000,000 Al Quoz Sprint and defeating Ertijaal (IRE). He has been a profitable horse for bettors. If you had bet on Buffering throughout his career, you would have seen a 54% return on investment. Buffering has retired from racing, with his final race on October 21, 2016, at Moonee Valley. Buffering was purchased for $22,000 at the 2009 Magic Millions QTIS 600 Yearling Sale.
