Rustic Steel Wins $500,000 Coast

Tara Madgwick - Saturday May 7

Worth $500,000, The Coast (1600m) was the richest race at the big Gosford meeting on Saturday and while it didn’t carry Black Type it was a nice race to win with victory going to the Kris Lees trained Deep Field gelding Rustic Steel.

He pulled out plenty of courage under pressure to stave off O’President and win the lucrative race by half a length under Jay Ford.

Rustic Steel was brave from start to finish leading all the way to take his overall record to six wins from 12 starts with prizemoney topping $533,000.

A $500,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Newgate Farm draft for Tasman Bloodstock, Rustic Steel runs for Ron and Judy Wanless.


Foaled and raised at Newgate, Rustic Steel is the best of three winners from Ten Carat Rock, an unraced sibling to Group I winners Redoute’s Choice, Manhattan Rain and Platinum Scissors.

Ten Carat Rock has had a few ownership changes, most recently when bought by Dean Hawthorne Bloodstock for $400,000 from Newgate at the 2018 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale.

Blue Light Enhances Breeding Success
For successful breeding outcomes, timing is everything. The horse’s natural reproductive period coincides with the light-filled days of summer. As seasonal breeders, the naturally lengthening days of spring suppress melatonin and in turn stimulate reproductive hormones that maximise fertility for both mares and stallions.
