Rusty Spirit
(Australia)About
Rusty Spirit is a 8-year-old brown/black gelding from Australia, trained by Cliff Smith and Jo Leeson, who operate out of Mardella. He is the offspring of the stallion Trade Fair and the mare She Done Him Wrong. Throughout his career, Rusty Spirit has won 3 races. His most notable victory occurred on March 25, 2023, at Ascot, where he was ridden by William Pike and won the $40,000 4yo+ Rst 0 Met Win-Ly Handicap, defeating Call Again. He has proven to be a profitable investment for bettors; backing Rusty Spirit during his career would have yielded a 22 percent return on investment.
