The Virginian
(AUS)About
The Virginian is a 12yo bay gelding (male) from Australia trained by Brett Cavanough, who is based at Scone. He is sired by the stallion Hinchinbrook out of the dam Redwood Dancer. Given that he is a stakes winner and has amassed $259,150 in career earnings, The Virginian is regarded as a racehorse with above-average ability. On 20th May 2017 at Doomben, The Virginian was ridden by Jimmy Byrne and scored his most significant win to date, getting the money in the $100000 Chief De Beers, defeating Highly Geared. The Virginian has concluded his racing career, last running on the 14th Oct 2017 at Royal Randwick.
