About

Explosive Jack is a 7yo bay stallion from New Zealand trained by Ciaron Maher. He is sired by Jakkalberry out of the dam Extra Explosive. With a Group One win and career earnings of $3,190,605, Explosive Jack is considered an elite racehorse. On April 8, 2023, at Royal Randwick, Explosive Jack, ridden by Dylan Gibbons, secured his most notable victory in the $2,000,000 Sydney Cup, defeating True Marvel. He has been a profitable choice for bettors. Backing Explosive Jack throughout his career would have yielded a 197% return on investment.
