About

General Firepower is a 6-year-old bay gelding from Australia, trained by Michael Moroney at Flemington. He is the offspring of the stallion Better Than Ready and the mare Ekka Ride. Throughout his career, General Firepower has secured five victories. His most notable win occurred on June 5, 2024, at Sandown Lakeside, where he was ridden by Blake Shinn and triumphed in the $50,000 Benchmark 70 Handicap, beating Riproar. He has proven to be a lucrative horse for bettors, providing a 10 percent return on investment for those who supported him throughout his racing journey.
