Description

THE TERMINATOR (3g. Zoustar x My Dinah Lee)

A well-named prospect with upside and potential, THE TERMINATOR is a lightly raced three-year-old gelding by Champion sire ZOUSTAR, having had just three career starts to date.

Currently spelling at Pine View Lodge, Beerwah, QLD since 22nd April 2025, this gelding has shown glimpses of promise on the track but is still physically immature — and time is expected to be his greatest ally. He will return a stronger, more developed horse after a decent break, ready to progress in his next campaign.

He is a full brother to the consistent two-time winner MADAME METEOR (5m, Zoustar), who broke her maiden as a late three-year-old and won again at four with further upside to come, suggesting THE TERMINATOR will improve with age and maturity, just like his sister.

THE TERMINATOR is a well-related, lightly raced son of ZOUSTAR with genuine upside. With time and patience, he looks every bit a later-blooming gelding who can reward connections on the track. THE TERMINATOR is being offered for sale as his ownership group is solely focused on racing stallion prospects. For further information or to arrange an inspection or vetting, please contact Colum McCullagh at Blue Gum Farm on 0497 214 886 or colum@trilogyracing.com.au.

He is approximately 16'1 hands and 508kg.

** We advise all potential buyers to complete their own vetting prior to purchase as Blue Gum Farm holds no liability post-sale.**
