About

Surefire is a 7yo bay gelding (male) from United Kingdom trained by Chris Waller, who is based at Rosehill. He is sired by the stallion Fastnet Rock out of the dam Modesta. Given that he has won at Group Two level and has amassed $652,150 in career earnings, Surefire is regarded as a very talented racehorse. On 1st Apr 2023 at Royal Randwick, Surefire was ridden by Joao Moreira and scored his most significant win to date, getting the money in the $300000 Chairmans Quality Hcp, defeating Gin Martini. He has proven a profitable horse for the punters over the journey. If you had backed Surefire throughout his career you'd have achieved a 190% return on investment.
