About

Raratonga Rose is a 5-year-old filly from South Africa, trained by Gavin Smith. She is the offspring of the stallion Flower Alley and the mare Faraway Island. Throughout her career, Raratonga Rose has won four races. Her most notable victory occurred on January 10, 2023, at Turffontein, where she was ridden by K De Melo and won the $54,688 Furious Room Now Opened Fm 80 Handicap (F & M), beating Namaqua Blossom. She has been a profitable horse for bettors, providing a 38 percent return on investment if backed throughout her career.
