Trained by Kris Lees and ridden by Josh Parr, Rustic Steel scored by a length at his third run back from a spell.

 

 

A $500,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Newgate Farm draft for Tasman Bloodstock, Rustic Steel runs for Ron and Judy Wanless and has won 10 races from 29 starts banking $2million..

Foaled and raised at Newgate, Rustic Steel is the best of five winners from Ten Carat Rock, an unraced sibling to Group I winners Redoute’s Choice, Manhattan Rain and Platinum Scissors. She is also the grand-dam of this season’s quality three year-old Kingofwallstreet, winner of the Group III MRC Caulfield Classic.

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

Ten Carat Rock has foaled this spring producing a colt by Capitalist.
