334 – USHUAIA won Race 6 over 1400m at Fairview Racecourse. He looked an absolute picture going to the start and came back in style. The son of Pomdoro was ridden to victory by Winning Form-sponsored Richard Fourie and is trained by Alan Greeff. Well Done to the breeders Haras Del Carmo.

March 17th, 2022
Raced over 1500m at the Vaal. Anthony Delpech post-race comment: He moved up at the 500m and then stopped badly. He looked like he needed the run and Sean Tarry had stated that before the race. He will improve with this run.

October 14th, 2021
He was returning from a 16-week break, during which time he was gelded. He took his place in a 1500m on the Vaal Classic course. The son of Pomodoro showed signs of needing the outing and is looking for further. He will come on with this run under the belt and should have plenty of improvement to come.
